The rise of the digital economy is putting new pressure on the traditional global supply chain. Businesses are demanding better visibility across delivery and supply channels, quicker shipping capabilities and the ability to source products on-demand to reflect real-time conditions at the consumer level. We view this as a compelling backdrop for new entrants seeking to address gaps in the status quo and see areas of growth across the value chain.
Our most recent Emerging Tech Research: Supply Chain Tech report covers this and more, with key trends including:
- Supply chain tech raised $10.4 billion in VC in 2019, an uptick from 2018
- Freight tech and delivery applications drove deal activity in 2019
- The coronavirus pandemic has highlighted the need for emerging technologies that can mitigate the risk of future supply chain shocks
