Looking Ahead, Looking Back: Supply Chain Lessons and the Road to 2027

As another year comes to a close, what lessons should we carry forward—and how should we prepare for what’s next?

This December Lunch & Learn will serve as a year-end reflection and forward-looking conversation, bringing together key themes from across BISG’s Supply Chain programming to help participants plan for 2027 with greater clarity and confidence.

Topics will include:

• Key lessons from 2026: what worked, what didn’t, and why
• Policy, supply chain, and technology trends likely to shape 2027
• Operational priorities for the year ahead, including capacity, inventory, sustainability, and data readiness
• Practical guidance for preparing teams, systems, and partners for next year’s challenges and opportunities

Designed as an interactive discussion, this session will emphasize shared learning and actionable takeaways rather than predictions alone.

Participants are encouraged to reflect on their own experiences, compare notes with peers, and identify priorities for the year ahead.

As with all BISG Supply Chain Lunch & Learns, the session will be participatory, with time for discussion and questions.

Featured speakers to be announced!

About the Supply Chain Lunch & Learn Series

BISG's Supply Chain Lunch & Learns are always highly interactive, so you'll have a chance to contribute at the session. If you have any specific questions you'd like us to cover in this Lunch & Learn, you may send them in advance to info@bisg.org or simply add them to the chat during the session.

To allow participants to speak—and not just type questions—these sessions are conducted in a Zoom meeting (rather than webinar) format. Please take a moment to ensure that your microphone is muted until you'd like to contribute. While we encourage you to attend the live session, the conversation will be recorded and shared with registrants after the session takes place.
