The COVID-19 global crisis continues to disrupt manufacturing and global supply chains with severe consequences for society, businesses, consumers, and the global economy.

What short term actions do companies take to ensure business continuity and protect employees? How do they prepare for the rebound and increase the resilience in their manufacturing and supply systems? What are forever changes that companies need to adapt to, to ensure long-term success?

The World Economic Forum, in collaboration with Kearney, brought together C-level executives from different industry sectors to identify best responses to the current COVID-19 crisis, in the short-term, and help build resilience across manufacturing and supply systems by incubating new business partnerships and public-private cooperation.
