Recording webinar ‘Supplier visibility’

Supply chain visibility has advanced significantly, helping organisations understand where materials originate, how products are made and which suppliers participate across their global networks. Yet identifying a supplier is only part of the picture.

Complex ownership structures, parent companies, subsidiaries, joint ventures and corporate affiliations can create connections that traditional supplier mapping alone struggles to detect. Those hidden relationships may expose an organisation to regulatory restrictions, geopolitical disruption, reputational concerns and continuity risks, even when a direct supplier appears compliant and reliable.

Recent developments in US export controls, including changes affecting affiliated entities, underscore why ownership intelligence is becoming an important part of supply chain risk management. As governments place greater scrutiny on corporate relationships and control, organisations may need to evaluate not only who they buy from, but also who owns, controls or benefits from those businesses.

Watch the recording of this Webinar Wednesday with moderator Martijn Lofvers, CEO and Chief Trendwatcher at Supply Chain Movement, and experts Andy Simmons, Senior Director of Solutions Consulting at e2open, and Justin Dillon, Product Portfolio Leader at FRDM.ai. They will explore how teams can uncover relevant connections, interpret ownership and affiliation data, and incorporate those insights into sourcing, compliance and risk decisions. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of where conventional visibility approaches can fall short and how stronger ownership intelligence can support faster decisions, more effective due diligence and greater resilience across complex global networks.
