The ISCRiM Newsletter

Are you looking for the latest in supply chain risk research? Usually, newsletters from the International Supply Chain Risk Management Network (ISCRiM) are the place to find it, and finally, here’s the first and hopefully not the only newsletter for 2011, like in 2010, when there was only one. The ISCRiM Newsletter is filled to the brim with exciting news about journal articles, books and book chapters published by the ISCRiM members, conference papers, conferences to be held that have supply chain risk in their program, research reports and dissertations/theses that deal with supply chain risk, Internet links and useful websites that a researcher in supply chain risk ought to be aware of. It’s a who’s who and what’s what in supply chain risk management. Continue reading

ISCRiM 2010 Proceedings

Two weeks ago I attended the ISCRiM 2010 seminar at Loughborough University, a gathering of some of the finest researchers in supply chain risk. Here I had the chance to meet and talk to the people I so far have only blogged about, and it was a very inspiring two days in Loughborough. In order to disseminate the research that was presented at the seminar to a wider audience I have decided to publish the proceedings on my blog so that other researchers, academics and practioners can keep abreast of the latest in supply chain risk research.

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.

The ISCRiM Newsletter 2/2009

I don’t know what I would do with the ISCRiM Newsletters from the International Supply Chain Risk Management Network. They are indeed a valuable source of information for my research into supply chain risk and related topics, particularily for academia-related news on recent papers, books, conferences, dissertations and theses, job openings, ongoing research projects and whatever else that could be useful. Issue number 2 this year is just out and it is well worth reading.

International Supply Chain Risk Management

The International Supply Chain Risk Management Network (ISCRiM) is a network of academics interested in how to handle different types of risks in the supply chain. The main purpose of the ISCRiM-network is to speed up, and improve, the research within “Supply Chain Risk Management”. I came across this network when I did some background research for my book review on Supply Chain Risk, a book edited by Claire Brindley.
