ISCRiM 2010

I am currently attending the 2010 seminar of the International Supply Chain Risk Management Network (ISCRiM) here in the UK, which is why there won’t be too many – if any – posts from me this week. ISCRiM is perhaps the network for the elite among supply chain risk researchers, and since the seminar is open to invited guests and members only, and since I am not a member, I feel honored to have been invited into this distinguished circle of academics and professionals.

Home turf

The event is hosted by Loghborough University, which take me back to many familiar places, as I did my MSc in GIS on Transportation GIS at the University of Leicester, just a stone’s throw away from Loughborough. In fact, it’s even in the same “shire”, namely Leicestershire.

For the record, this post is being published at the same time that I am scheduled to speak and present this:
