The Resilient Supply Chain Podcast is where global leaders explore how to make supply chains stronger, smarter, and more sustainable.
Hosted by Tom Raftery, technology evangelist, sustainability thought-leader, and former SAP Global VP, the show features C-suite executives, founders, and innovators from some of the world’s most influential companies. Together, we examine how organisations are building supply chains that can withstand shocks, adapt to change, and compete in a decarbonising economy.
New episodes drop every Monday at 7 a.m. CET, packed with real insight, not PR fluff.
From resilience and risk mitigation to AI-driven visibility, circular design, and ESG transformation, the podcast unpacks the data, systems, and strategies shaping global operations.
You’ll hear from the people doing the work on:
- business continuity and crisis response
- Scope 3 emissions and supply chain sustainability
- digital twins and predictive resilience
- ethical sourcing and due diligence compliance
- nearshoring, automation, and future-ready logistics
Because a supply chain can’t be sustainable unless it’s resilient, and it can’t be resilient unless it’s sustainable.
Resilient Supply Chain+ subscribers also get access to bonus episodes, including highlight reels, extra analysis, trend briefings, and other subscriber-only insights.
If you’re a supply chain executive, sustainability strategist, or technology leader, this show gives you an edge.

What happens when last-mile delivery stops being a logistics function and starts becoming a strategic differentiator?
It changes how you think about cost, resilience, sustainability, and even customer retention.
In this week's episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Nishith Rastogi, Founder and CEO of Locus, to explore why last mile has become one of the most consequential decision layers in modern supply chains. For leaders focused on supply chain resilience, sustainability, risk, data, and visibility, this matters because delivery is no longer just about moving goods. It’s about making better decisions, faster, in environments where complexity keeps rising and customer tolerance keeps falling.
We break down why traditional TMS and routing models struggle when delivery networks span stores, warehouses, captive fleets, 3PLs, gig capacity, and rising service expectations. You’ll hear why “more data” is not the answer on its own, and why the real advantage now comes from turning that data into real-time decisions that improve cost, service, and emissions in parallel.
We also get into the growing role of AI in logistics, the limits of rules-based automation, and why resilience increasingly depends on optionality, adaptability, and reducing dependence on tribal knowledge.
One of the sharpest ideas in the episode is this: if you miss a linehaul slot, you lose a day; if you miss a customer delivery slot, you may lose the customer.
🎙️ Listen now to hear how last-mile logistics is reshaping the future of resilient, sustainable supply chains.

The shipping industry is the backbone of international trade, contributing to the globalisation and development of the world, but it’s the shipping people who makes the world go around.
This is where you meet the maritime professionals, strong characters with an interesting background.
Plugged In: How Shore Power Is Cleaning Up Our Ports
In this episode, we dig into shore power—the system that lets docked ships plug into port power rather than burning fuel on board. This simple switch reduces fuel use, drastically cuts air pollution, and helps port cities enforce anti-idling laws.
Listen to Maria Bos, CEO of Plug, a professional operator focusing on stable, easy-to-use shore power installations. Maria has extensive experience in innovation, digitalisation, and strategy across the financial and renewable energy sectors. Plug is an Eviny-owned shore power company.

Climate Confident is the podcast for business leaders, policy-makers, and climate tech professionals who want real, practical strategies for cutting emissions and building a resilient low-carbon future.
Every Wednesday at 7am CET, I sit down with the people doing the work, executives, engineers, scientists, founders, and policymakers, to unpack what’s actually driving climate progress across energy, transport, industry, supply chains, food, finance, and more.
This isn’t about vague pledges or greenwash. It’s about what’s working, what isn’t, and what leaders need to understand now to make better decisions faster.

What if one of the biggest climate problems in our buildings isn’t power generation, but the fact we’re still burning fuel in the basement?
In this episode, I’m joined by Dan Yates, CEO of Dandelion Energy, to unpack why geothermal may be one of the most overlooked tools in climate tech today, and why building decarbonisation deserves far more attention in the wider energy transition debate. If we’re serious about net zero and real emissions reduction, we need to stop treating heating as a side issue.
Dan lays out a blunt truth: heating and cooling account for the vast majority of emissions from buildings, yet much of the conversation still fixates on EVs, solar, and batteries. You’ll hear why some forms of electrification can create a nasty unintended consequence by driving winter peak demand through the roof, and why geothermal flips that logic on its head. We dig into how ground-source systems can cut energy use, slash peak load, and potentially reduce the need for expensive new grid infrastructure.
You might be shocked to learn that this isn’t just an HVAC story. It’s a grid story. A policy story. A housing story. We also get into cost, leasing, incentives, data, and why Dan believes geothermal should be seen as distributed infrastructure hiding in plain sight. If you want a clearer view of what practical climate action looks like beyond the usual talking points, this one’s worth your time.
🎙️ Listen now to hear how Dan Yates and Dandelion Energy are pushing a smarter, more strategic path to decarbonisation.

ClearTech Loop is a fast, focused podcast delivering sharp, soundbite-ready insights on what’s next in cybersecurity, cloud, and AI. Hosted by Jo Peterson, Chief Analyst at ClearTech Research, each 10-minute episode explores today’s most pressing tech and risk issues through a business-focused lens.
Whether it’s CISOs rethinking cyber strategy or AI reshaping risk governance, ClearTech Loop brings clarity to a shifting landscape—built for tech leaders who don’t have time for fluff.
We cut through hype. We rethink assumptions. We keep you in the loop.
In this episode of the ClearTech Loop podcast, Jo Peterson sits down with Gerry Gadoury to talk about what AI security leadership actually requires as the threat landscape changes faster and the business pressure around AI keeps rising.
This is not a conversation about one more security tool. Gerry brings the discussion back to risk judgment, executive alignment, and the human side of security leadership. As AI lowers the barrier for attackers and accelerates the pace of change, security leaders need to focus on real risk, not theoretical panic, while helping the business make better decisions under pressure.
