Museums take this educational role seriously, and many institutions understand the need to sustain and broaden their appeal. “They used to be these big ivory towers of knowledge and history and thought and art,” said Hilary Knight, director of Change& in London and former director of digital at Tate. “Museums themselves are changing their role to be centers for discussion and encounter and to be much more participatory.”

'Ghost ships' are vessels that disappear from public tracking systems, their location manipulated or their digital record misleading. An estimated 65% of outbound tankers crossing the Strait of Hormuz operate in dark mode, reducing visibility and increasing supply chain uncertainty. Misinformation in vessel tracking can cause manufacturing delays, compliance risks and financial losses. Layered verification processes, combining AIS data with other sources and escalation triggers for handling uncertain shipments, can help mitigate risk.

Creating a trusted and secure semiconductor supply chain requires an end-to-end strategy

Supply Chain Quarterly, October 31, 2022

Semiconductors, the “brains” of modern electronics, power just about everything in our daily lives, from our smart phones to our internet of things (IoT) devices and laptops. Semiconductors are also particularly important to certain industries like auto manufacturing, where new vehicles have computer systems that contain over 100 million lines of code. In the health care industry, high-tech applications like robotic surgery depend on secure, reliable chips. Advanced chips are needed to enable technologies of the future, like quantum computing and artificial intelligence. And most importantly, semiconductors enable the nation’s military capabilities, including transportation, weapons systems, communications, and intelligence gathering capabilities, which make a trusted and secure supply of chips a national security priority.
