DPW Speaking Session

Procurement and Supply Chain in the Modern Trade Environment, A Strategic Panel Discussion for DPW NYC

CENTER STAGE
Wednesday, June 11, 2025 | 3:25 PM - 03:50 PM (ET)

The era of predictable global trade is over.

From Silicon Valley's semiconductor dependencies to Europe's energy vulnerabilities, procurement leaders are navigating an increasingly weaponized trade environment where supply chains have become battlegrounds for geopolitical influence.

Join three experts tackling the hard questions keeping procurement leaders awake at night:

The Panel:

  • Ebehi Iyoha - Harvard Business School Professor on trade policy as political leverage
  • David Wild - Schneider Electric's Global VP of Digital Procurement on operational reality
  • Spencer Penn - LightSource CEO on technology solutions for uncertain times

Critical Topics:

  • How tariffs are disrupting direct materials sourcing strategies
  • Building supplier diversification when entire regions become "politically risky"
  • Using AI and technology to navigate rapid policy changes
  • Advising C-suite executives when political risk trumps traditional metrics

What You'll Gain: Frameworks for assessing geopolitical supplier risk, technology tools for enhanced visibility, and strategies for turning volatility into competitive advantage.

This isn't theory—it's survival strategy for the new trade reality.
