This hugely enjoyable and informative third episode of our 2022 informal business conversations is with Johan Vanderplaetse, Senior Vice-President, Industrial Automation, Schneider Electric. We started with a discussion of the Russian market and what Johan’s company has experienced: fascinating insights. The rest and majority of our discussion revolved around global business trends and key drivers of business in EMEA but also China. Johan went into depth on topics of supply chain, digitalisation strategy, logistics and localisation which, of course, are all key, critical issues facing all of us. I am pleased to say that Johan Vanderplaetse will make himself available again later this autumn when we will focus more on global energy trends and greenification and renewables and the role of digitalisation and automation in these developments This conversation was held on 25-26 August 2022  Contact: office@dt-gbc.com
Stefan Van Doorslaer, CEO of Ahlers, is the protagonist of our second informal business talk of 2022.

We speak a lot about Russia, but also about generic and universal business issues related to logistics and warehousing. Stefan Van Doorslaer's insights will give you “food for thought” and help to shape your thinking for the future business environment. Interview recorded on 11 August 2022 Contact: office@dt-gbc.com

Wolfram’s family company has been in business for more than 500 years (Yes, you read that sentence correctly) so Wolfram is well able to look at the long-term picture. He shared his experiences and how his company had coped with the business environment in the last 18 months and before that. One of his balanced themes was that perhaps not that much had changed (nothing naïve here and well aware of significant changes but makes the valid point that a lot does stay the same).
I recently had the opportunity to speak informally with Robert Bednarski, Country Manager for Central Eastern Europe, Facebook. Robert shared with us with an extensive yet in-depth insight to business and IT changes and developments in the last 18 months and provided indicators of trends and shifts which are still on-going. It’s a rare opportunity to get the insights of a senior executive at this rather well-known company! I hope that you enjoy the recording and trust that you will find it thought provoking.
