THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minnesota, USA – Digi-Key Electronics has released the first episode in Season 2 of its “Supply Chain Transformed” video series. It is focused on advancements in IoT, connectivity, sensors and asset tracking within the supply chain.
The series is sponsored by Nordic Semiconductor. The three-episode series will take a closer look at how the world is tackling new and ever-present challenges in global logistics. Further, it will explore how technology is poised to provide visibility and insight into supply chain risks.
“Recent years have shown how much risk truly exists between point A and B in the supply chain,” said Josh Mickolio, supplier business development manager for wireless and IoT at Digi-Key. “With so much continued focus on global logistics, it’s more important than ever for accessible, automated monitoring and tracking. At Digi-Key, we’re dedicated to ensuring that the most in-demand products are readily available.”
“Automation is key to being able to scale and optimize global supply chains,” said Magnus Pedersen, vice president of sales, EMEA at Nordic Semiconductor. “The more efficient we can make the supply chain, the better it is. Fewer parts will have to be in temporary storage and the delivery precision for customers increases. This should save time and money, all the way from wafer production until the end customer receives their end product.”
