Back to Programme

Supply chains are, in reality, supply networks - or can we say ... A GRID?
Louise Goeser, in her presentation during the Querétaro chapter of the First Bilateral Business Summit, showed very clearly how Siemens has managed to thrive in an ever changing environment globally ... by being local. The concept of Global Value Supply is central to Siemens and is, at the same time, the ticket to a global reality for the firm's supplierhood, the firms supplier grid.

 * How do clusters, governments, service companies and educational institutions play into this?
 * How can SMEs tap into existing grids abroad?
