When supply chains fail, businesses feel it fast: delayed products, rising costs, unhappy customers and tough decisions behind the scenes.
Tomorrow on Starting Up with Virtuzone, we’re talking about what it really takes to build stronger, more resilient supply chains.
First, Jihad Tayara, CEO of EVOTEQ, joins Tom Urquhart and Neil Petch to discuss how data, visibility and forecasting can help businesses and decision-makers prepare better.
EVOTEQ is the UAE digital innovation firm behind Tatmeen, the national pharmaceutical track-and-trace system that provides full visibility into medications across the country.
Then, we bring the conversation closer to business owners with Gareth Burnett-Jones, co-founder and CEO of Desert Forge; Kate Tavener, founder of Shoeq.ae; and Aizza Page, founder of SilkSouq, as they share how rising freight costs, delayed shipments, stock issues and customer expectations are changing the way SMEs operate.
If your business relies on stock, shipping, suppliers or customer trust, then this is an episode you shouldn’t miss.
Tune in live tomorrow on Dubai Eye 103.8 News. Talk. Sport at 10 AM.
