Program description

The Northern Nevada International Center at the University of Nevada, Reno is proud to host the 2024 U.S. - Republic of Korea (ROK) Global Supply Chain Leaders Program, in collaboration with the United States Embassy in Seoul, in an effort to facilitate dynamic discussions aimed at fostering resilient and sustainable global supply chains between the United States and the Republic of Korea.

Scheduled to coincide with Korea's Trade and Security Day in September 2024, the program will bring together 10 U.S. global supply chain policy professionals for a series of forums, site visits to Korean advanced industries, and networking events with key stakeholders in Korean global trade and supply chain policy to foster broader awareness of our bilateral trade relationship.

The program will enrich the participants’ global understanding of supply chains through the lens of the U.S. ROK bilateral relationship, focusing on what allows supply chains to flourish and how to mitigate the complexities and challenges of global distribution.

Through this program, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how the United States and ROK can develop and manage global supply chains, particularly in relation to U.S. - ROK efforts to create secure, sustainable and resilient global supply chains.

• Have extensive work/study experience in global supply chain policy and/or related field
