The 2026 APAC Supply Chain Playbook: AI, Resilience, and Smart Trade-Offs
Overview The 2026 APAC Supply Chain Playbook: AI, Resilience, and Smart Trade-Offs
Supply chain leaders in retail and manufacturing are facing unprecedented volatility. Inflation, tariffs, and geopolitical disruptions are shaping long-term strategy.
In this session, RELEX explores how APAC organisations are responding to these challenges with resilience-focused strategies and AI-driven decision-making. The discussion draws on insights from the State of Supply Chain 2026: Volatility, Trade-Offs & the Rise of AI report, based on a survey of over 500 supply chain leaders globally, including APAC.
The research highlights how companies are navigating trade-offs—raising prices and building inventory or streamlining operations to control costs. Retailers leverage promotions to engage price-sensitive consumers, whilst manufacturers diversify suppliers and adjust pack sizes. Across sectors, AI adoption is accelerating to enable faster, data-driven decisions.
Participants will gain a practical playbook for navigating uncertainty, showing where to invest, what to simplify, and how to prioritise initiatives to build flexible, resilient, and adaptable supply chains.
In this webinar we will be talking about:
Understand the impact of cost pressures, trade policy, and geopolitical volatility on APAC supply chains
Evaluate how specialised AI and scenario planning are being adopted to manage uncertainty and enable resilience
Make informed trade-offs between inventory strategies, pricing, promotions, and supplier diversification
Apply practical framework to prioritise initiatives, align teams, and build adaptable supply chains for 2026 and beyond
