WEBINAR: In Chaos We Create: Bridging the Critical Raw Materials Gap Through Strategic Convergence

As geopolitical instability, economic uncertainty, and technological acceleration converge, access to Critical Raw Materials (CRMs)—the backbone of AI, energy transition, and robotics—faces unprecedented risk.

From green energy to advanced manufacturing and national defense, the stakes are high, while CRM supply chains remain fragile, concentrated, and increasingly exposed to geopolitical friction.

How do nations and industries secure the resources they need in a fractured world?

This exclusive session, hosted by Supply Chain Now’s Scott Luton, brings together global strategist and geopolitical leader General John Allen, retired United States Marine Corps four-star general, and former commander of the NATO International Security Assistance Force and U.S. Forces – Afghanistan (USFOR-A) and current President of Globsec’s GeoTech Center, and Koray Köse, Senior Fellow at Globsec, Founder & Chief Analyst at Kose Advisory and leading expert in supply chain resilience, AI, and geopolitics.

Join us for a conversation that explores how technology, governance, and cross-sector collaboration must align to close the widening supply-demand gap for CRMs by 2030.

Webinar attendees will learn:

  • The severity of current CRM exposure to global supply chains and economies and why it presents a strategic crisis for the free world
  • Why CRMs are not just the NEXT, but the most CURRENT critical geopolitical fault line
  • How AI, risk management platforms, and advanced analytics can illuminate and secure complex global value chains
  • Practical steps governments, investors, and corporations must take to enable transparent, secure, and resilient CRM sourcing
  • Why proactive partnerships between defense, industry, and tech are essential to redefining supply chain leadership
  • How independent think tanks like Globsec and the GeoTech Research Center play a vital role in shaping urgent, inclusive, and actionable global policy

Real stories: People first – Leadership lessons in driving digital supply chain transformation

Digital transformation is what most companies do, but only a few report that they have successfully achieved their aspiration. Why? Because digital transformation starts with people and organization, not with technology. Adapting the organization to be future-ready is the foundation of lasting competitive advantage. Drawing from her experience leading large-scale change management initiatives, special guest Eliza Simeonova, Quality Supply Chain Operations Officer with Haleon, joins Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Jake Barr, along with OMP Chief Commercial & Markets Officer, Philip Vervloesem, to discuss how smart talent, capability, and organizational choices create real value and how people strategy is adapted to match business goals. This session shares proven approaches for upskilling talent and building teams that confidently leverage AI and digital tools, turning challenging transformations into measurable business results throughout the supply chain. What You’ll Walk Away With: Inspiration to see why the supply chain of the future depends on bold, adaptive leaders—not just faster systems. A new perspective on why waiting for the “perfect” structure or rollout could be holding you back. Insight into how human-centered approaches—investing in people, planning, and end-to-end optimization—deliver the sharpest competitive edge.
