Supply Chains in the Age of AI: The Infrastructure Challenge

Join us for a summer webinar series exploring how AI-driven demand for energy and other critical inputs is reshaping supply chains.

The rapid growth of artificial intelligence is driving unprecedented demand for semiconductors, critical minerals, networking equipment, cooling technologies, and electricity, creating an entirely new set of global supply chain challenges.

Join us for the second webinar in this summer's Responsible Supply Chain Futures webinar series as we explore the supply chains powering the AI economy.

To help us understand this rapidly evolving landscape, Serguei Netessine (The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania) and Masha Shunko (University of Washington) will provide a systems-level perspective on the global supply chains behind AI, examining the operational, geopolitical, and sustainability challenges of scaling AI infrastructure.

Building on that discussion, John Shingledecker of EPRI will examine what it takes to turn strategy into reality. Drawing on EPRI's work with supply chains for the energy infrastructure, he will discuss emerging challenges related to manufacturing capacity, supply chain risk and resilience, and ​coordination needed to support continued AI growth.

This series is sponsored by the Center for Responsible Supply Chain Management in the NASPO Department of Supply Chain Management at ASU's W. P. Carey School and the Institute for Environmental and Social Sustainability at IU's Kelley School.
