In this issue of Virginia Economic Review, VEDP's Vice President of Logistics Eric Jehu spoke with two supply chain thought leaders based in Virginia. Check out how Virginia's supply chain is a key link that helps consumers across the country access the products they need and enjoy.
I was delighted to help concept and develop the latest issue of VEDP’s quarterly publication, Virginia Economic Review, which explores the state of the supply chain in an increasingly global, post-pandemic world. I had the pleasure of interviewing two supply chain experts, Myra Blanco, chief growth officer at the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute and CEO of the university’s Dock to Door Coalition, and Lance Harcrow chief operating officer with Estes Forwarding Worldwide. Other experts interviewed in the issue include Ashleigh de la Torre, vice president of public policy at Amazon, and Michael Coleman, CEO of CV International. https://lnkd.in/emkGCsRR

Ranked No. 1 in the U.S. for Education by CNBC, Virginia has a strong aerospace and UAS industry workforce, which is forecast to grow 11% over the next decade. The aerospace industry draws talent from thousands of service members who exit the armed services in Virginia every year – many with security clearances – and the Commonwealth’s excellent school systems ensure a steady flow of new talent. https://hubs.ly/Q02HtnVY0 #FIA2024
