Resilience in the storm: adapting to severe weather in supply chains

The world has seen massive change over the last five years. Climate change, geopolitical conflicts, a global pandemic and shifting alliances have all impacted supply chains in all aspects. Well into 2025, the industry has already faced a myriad of challenges that have significantly impacted supply chains and logistics.

As climate change accelerates, severe weather is no longer a rare disruption - it's a constant challenge. In this episode of Beyond the Box, we explore how logistics providers are adapting to increasingly volatile weather conditions to keep global supply chains resilient and responsive. Hosted by Cecilia Larsen and Philip Lewin, the episode features Andrew Forsyth, Head of Climate Resilience and Sustainability at Zurich Resilience Solutions (UK) and Peter Gede, Loss Prevention Manager at Maersk Insurance A/S.

Together, they address:

• The rising impact of extreme weather events - from hurricanes and floods to heatwaves
• How businesses can evolve from reactive responses to proactive strategies
• How data, AI, and cross-sector collaboration are driving resilience deep into supply chain operations
• Why agility, visibility, and integrated planning are essential to future-proofing logistics
