LCL Conversation Series

The COVID-19 pandemic unleashed unprecedented impacts on global supply chains, mandating a thorough discussion and examination of existing practices and decisions which affect, directly and indirectly, each and every one of us. As the roll-out and distribution of vaccines across the globes gives us hope for the future, logistics and supply chain management have become a vital part of the fight against COVID-19.

Join the LCL CONVERSATION — a series of online seminars hosted by the Luxembourg Centre for Logistics and Supply Chain Management — for inspiring interactions with researchers and practitioners to brainstorm the future of logistics and supply chains.
