Physical Internet Workshop held as part of France-Atlanta 2022, an annual event series co-organized by the Consulate General of France and The Georgia Institute of Technology.
=============================
OVERVIEW
=============================
The workshop is positioned in a post-COVID world subject to uncertainties, variability, and disruptions where supply chains and logistic networks have to evolve toward higher concurrent agility, adaptability, availability, autonomation, resilience, security, intelligence, net-zero sustainability, and transparency.
The workshop addressed elevating their siloed conception to encompass a Physical Internet ecosystem system perspective (1) embracing universal interconnectivity, modularization, open sharing, and circularity, (2) leveraging technological innovations (e.g. AI, VR, IoT, 3D printing, robotics, autonomous vehicles) and (3) enabling to master the interplay between supply chain localization, regionalization, and globalization. The workshop discussed shaping industry best-practices, policies, innovation, research, as well as paradigms, mental models, and business models.
