For the first time in two decades, the U.S. has purchased more goods from Mexico than it has from China, providing further evidence for how much global trading patterns have shifted. Indeed, supply chain managers have seen an increasing need to adopt new technologies, including a growing initiative to increase nearshoring or onshoring efforts.

On this episode, Tom and Kevin are joined by Mike Franz of InSupply to provide insight to these issues and a whole lot more: 2023’s dramatic increase in B2B eCommerce, the risks of Deep Fakes to your cybersecurity, and more intriguing economic news.
