WHAT WENT WRONG? LOGISTICS & SUPPLY CHAIN CASE

Are you a student interested in understanding what can go wrong in logistics and supply chain projects… and how a mistake can become a valuable learning opportunity?

 

Take part in WHAT WENT WRONG: Logistics and Supply Chain Case, an interactive format designed to challenge you with real-world cases from the logistics and supply chain domain.

During the event, you will be actively involved in practical challenges related to logistics operations, supply chain planning, inventory management, transportation, warehousing, demand forecasting, digitalization, and process optimization.

 

Each company will present a real problem faced in a logistics or supply chain project and invite you to analyze the context, identify where things went wrong, and choose the solution you believe is correct between two possible options.

You will be able to submit your choice in real time through a live poll, comparing your reasoning with that of other students. Immediately afterward, the company will explain how the issue was actually resolved, outlining the decisions made, the mistakes encountered, and the key lessons learned.

The event will conclude with a Q&A session, giving you the opportunity to explore the cases in greater depth, ask direct questions to professionals, and better understand the skills required in logistics and supply chain projects.

 

A dynamic and engaging format to strengthen your problem-solving, critical thinking, and decision-making skills, and to get closer to the real challenges of logistics and supply chain management in the professional world.

 

Please note that the event will be held in English and is part of the Career Service Award.
