INDIA ON THE RISE

India’s Vision 2047 aims to position the country as a global leader in innovation, infrastructure, and economic growth, with supply chain modernization at its core. Mumbai, as the country’s economic powerhouse, is driving this transformation with factories, warehouses, advanced ports and logistic networks. Government initiatives like “Atmanirbhar Bharat” and “PM Gati Shakti” are enhancing connectivity and logistics, setting the stage for India to become a global leader in supply chain management.

For supply chain leaders, this is a pivotal moment. Rapid adoption of digital technologies such as AI, blockchain, and IoT is essential to improve efficiency, transparency, and scalability. Embracing these tools will not only reduce costs and improve operational excellence but also ensure competitiveness in an increasingly globalized market.

As India moves forward with its Vision 2047, supply chain leaders must innovate and invest in digital transformation. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of India’s supply chain ecosystem and contribute to the nation’s global competitiveness.

DISCUSSION TOPICS

As the CSO’s role evolves into that of a strategic partner to the CEO, today’s business landscape demands a wide range of responsibilities from the supply chain leaders, this shift is required to contribute to broader organizational strategy and decision-making.
