L07.2 – Introduction to Digital Supply Networks (A)

This advanced level lecture provides a foundational overview of Digital Supply Networks (DSNs) and their transformative potential for the clinical supply chain. Unlike traditional linear models, DSNs enable dynamic, real-time data flow across interconnected nodes—driving agility, transparency, and informed decision-making. Participants will explore the key technologies behind DSNs (such as IoT, AI, and cloud platforms), their application in clinical development, and how to begin transitioning from a traditional supply chain to a digitally connected platform.
