Global Supply Chain Realignments

Driven by shifting global economic conditions, specifically US-China trade frictions, lingering post-pandemic adjustments, and escalating geopolitical risks, global supply chains are undergoing a profound structural transformation. Multinational corporations are actively seeking more resilient, diversified supply chain architectures, systematically migrating manufacturing and logistics footprints to emerging economies such as India, Vietnam, and Mexico. As a prominent emerging market, India's positioning within global supply chains is ascending rapidly, particularly across manufacturing, information technology, and consumer goods sectors. This research area analyzes macro-trends in supply chain migration and their deep economic and policy implications for India, focusing on how policy reforms, infrastructure modernization, and international alliances can enhance India's integration into global production networks.
