Trade is no longer a straight line from factory to port to shelf—it’s a living system of policy choices, digital rails, and real-world bottlenecks. We trace the signals that matter: South Africa’s push toward a 3% inflation target, FAA turbulence exposing infrastructure fragility, and a wave of innovation from biotech to quantum that’s accelerating AI in supply chain planning and risk. From the G20’s debut in Johannesburg to the rewiring of global corridors, we unpack how multilateral cracks...

Trump's tariffs have unleashed chaos across global supply chains, forcing companies to make radical shifts in their production strategies almost overnight. Initially, tariffs were set at a staggering 145% on Chinese imports, these tariffs threatened to push iPhone prices to $3,000, add $5,000 to electric vehicle costs, and disrupt countless industries dependent on global manufacturing networks. The podcast explores how major players are responding with remarkable agility. Tesla is accelerati...
