Global supply chains are undergoing a gradual but meaningful shift. As production patterns adjust and trade relationships evolve, businesses and policymakers are taking a closer look at how supply chains are structured, and where risks and opportunities lie. China continues to be a central part of this system, with a major role in sectors like apparel, electronics, solar energy, and automotive manufacturing. Meanwhile, growing attention to diversification and long-term resilience is shaping how companies and policymakers think about doing business in or with China.
This policy meeting will bring together voices from research and industry to explore how these changes are unfolding. Rhodium Group will present findings from their recent report, China and the Future of Global Supply Chains, which maps China’s current position in global supply chains and outlines four potential scenarios for how things could evolve by 2030. Adding an operational perspective, DHL China will offer on-the-ground insights into how international companies are adapting in real time—including their approaches to supply chain diversification and practical strategies being implemented across industries.
The discussion will offer a timely opportunity to reflect on how global supply chains are adapting, how China’s role may continue to evolve, and what this means for international business, policy, and long-term strategy.
