Providing resiliency and value in a connected ecosystem

In the second episode of this podcast series, we examine the impact of a highly “connected system” on producers, suppliers, and retailers and how collaboration and competition have the potential to reshape how food is produced, delivered and consumed. Our expert guests discuss resiliency, agility, supply chain, risks and opportunities in a more connected and reimagined food system.

Key takeaways:

• Digital collaboration and disruption are reshaping how food is produced, delivered and consumed.
• In a consumer-driven economy where consumer expectations continuously evolve, personalization, connectivity and the ability to deliver expected value make up one version of a highly connected food system.
• Technology and data-driven decision-making can change the industry. Sharing data across the value chain and breaking down operating silos can create long-term value and advance the food system for the greater good.
