Exiger

Passport? Check. Calendar? Packed. September? Booked. ✈️ Exiger is heading across the U.S. and Europe this month, getting into the rooms where some of the biggest questions in trade, defense, industry and procurement are being worked through. We’ll be talking secure global trade and enforcement at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Trade and Cargo Security Summit, defense logistics and decision advantage with IDGA and National Defense Industrial Association - (NDIA), and what it takes to strengthen America’s industrial base at New American Industrial Alliance’s New Industrial Age Forum. Across the Atlantic, the conversation turns to ethics and compliance in Zurich, the future of procurement at DPW Amsterdam, and an Exiger Executive Forum in London bringing leaders together around the risks and opportunities reshaping global business. And on September 22, we’re taking the conversation online with Carahsoft for a live event "From Visibility to Action". The calendar is full. And we haven’t even told you the biggest part yet. 👀 See where to find us this September ↓ https://lnkd.in/eme7Snsx Graeme Thomson Sarah Wolf Lowell Patterson Griffin Fletcher Richard Martin Dan Kunze Jeremy Blaney Greg Haydasz Thomas Kofler Mark Henderson Derek Lemke Carrie (Wibben) Kaupp Sarah Clarke Lauren S.

Apple outsourced manufacturing to China. The result? It helped build the industrial system that now makes China so hard to replace. Patrick McGee, The New York Times bestselling author of Apple in China, joins Kit Conklin on Exiger Exchange to unpack how one of the world’s most sophisticated supply chains became an economic security warning for executives, investors and policymakers. From Intel and TSMC to the CHIPS Act, Tesla, SpaceX and China-plus-one strategies, the conversation tackles a critical question: What should leaders do when supply chains built for profitability become sources of power, leverage and economic risk? ▶️  Watch or 🎧 Listen  Apple in China: How the iPhone Became an Economic Security Warning.

“If we can build a capability in a week, but it takes nine months to hear whether we solved the right problem, faster product hasn’t created mission velocity.” That was Exiger’s Skyler Chi at last week’s Amazon Web Services (AWS) + Carahsoft FedTech Innovation Summit, where he and Carrie (Wibben) Kaupp joined federal and industry leaders focused on moving AI from possibility to operational impact. Top 5 Highlights: 1️⃣ Carrie opened the afternoon on the mainstage, joining Rishi Bhaskar for the Voice of Industry fireside chat. Drawing on her experience inside the national-security community and now at Exiger, she described what it takes for industry to deliver for the mission, not simply sell to it. 2️⃣ A fundamental part of that challenge is visibility: you cannot protect, strengthen or invest in what you cannot see. That principle is central to the opportunity created by Executive Order 14415. Carrie pointed to the EO as an opportunity to move beyond compliance through attestation and toward real mapping, vetting and action across critical supply chains. 3️⃣ AI changes what is possible. When supply chain data can be mapped and aggregated at scale, it becomes computable. That means connecting demand across critical programs to the materials, suppliers and capacity required to deliver them, creating a clearer signal for where to invest, where dependencies need to be addressed and where alternative sources need to be qualified. Just as important, Carrie emphasized that this has to happen while protecting the sensitive product and supplier data industry will not simply hand over. 4️⃣ Skyler followed on the Speed of Delivery: Buying and Deploying at Mission Velocity panel, pushing the conversation beyond procurement to a harder question: How close are the people experiencing the problem to the teams capable of changing the technology? Because faster technology only matters if we can turn it into faster feedback, better decisions and measurable mission outcomes. 5️⃣ Together, Carrie and Skyler underscored a larger opportunity: better data, tighter feedback loops and AI that turns visibility into action. Thank you to AWS and Carahsoft for bringing the FedTech community together for such a powerful day of conversation.

"What's happening right now should wake up every CEO and every elected official in every democracy around the world." In a new Fortune feature, Exiger's Kit Conklin explains why China Shock 2.0 has moved from Washington policy circles into corporate boardrooms. Kit's message to business leaders is simple: understand your exposure now. The pressure on foundational chips, robotics, and AI infrastructure will only intensify over the next two years. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/g4-p7eTG

I’m thrilled for the opportunity to chair Executive Mosaic’s 4×24 Secure Supply Chain Group and bring together an incredible group of leaders from government and industry who are tackling some of our hardest supply chain and national security challenges. I am looking forward to facilitating candid conversations and turning those conversations into ideas and action. The best ideas come from bringing the right people together around a shared mission. Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to see from different vantage points that readiness depends on our ability to get the right capabilities to the right place at the right time. Doing that requires us to better understand our supply chains, anticipate risk, and act before disruption impacts the mission. Thank you to my team at Exiger, where I see every day what is possible when great people, data, technology and mission come together, and thank you to Executive Mosaic for the opportunity to work with this group. I’m excited to get started. https://lnkd.in/eJ8NM7jF
