Thematic Year Symposium: Tackling the Challenges of Supply Chains

What opportunities for the St. Lawrence - Great Lakes corridor?

Four Seasons

Thursday 30 Mar 2023
From 8AM To 6PM

Pandemics, labor shortages, climate issues, and the economic situation related to the war in Ukraine are all impacting supply chains around the world. CIRANO is addressing these issues for its 2022-2023 thematic year entitled « Tackling the challenges of supply chains ».

In this context, we are pleased to organize our annual colloquium which will bring together CIRANO's principal researchers of the Pole on Data Science for Trade and Intermodal Transport, as well as representatives from Transport Canada, Global Affairs Canada, the Quebec Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility. We will also have the pleasure to welcome players from the ecosystem including Armateurs du Saint-Laurent, Cargo-M, Port of Montreal, Manufacturiers Exportateurs du Québec, SODES and others.

Over a full day of conferences and roundtables, our speakers will discuss international trade disruptions, the latest methodologies for developing real-time predictive models in trade and transportation, digital transformation issues for the workforce, value chains in the face of climate disruptions, and issues surrounding transportation, multimodality and logistics.

A comprehensive agenda and inspiring guests are expected.

 

This conference will be held in French.
