e-commerce may affect competitiveness in their traditional export markets. |

African Economic Performance in 2004: A Promise of Things to Come?
| |
| Against a backdrop of sustained global growth and high commodity prices, Africa has experienced its best
economic performance in many years. While recent economic performance is not merely driven by favourable
external factors, African economies still lack proper “shock-absorbers” to withstand internal (e.g. drought and
floods, political instability, HIV-Aids, etc.) and external (e.g. volatility of commodity prices and exchange rates)
shocks alike. They remain strongly vulnerable. In this context, creating the conditions for the development
of indigenous drivers of economic activity (starting with a thriving local private sector) is a top priority. |

What can be the "next big thing" in supply chain management?
| |
| Network Member Question
What can be the "next big thing" in supply chain management? Will it be technology-related (eg. new innovations, new IT solutions etc.) or more market-related (eg. changes in consumers demands and expectations forcing companies to adapt)?
Are there any major differences in the SCM developments in different parts of the world? Eg. are European supply chains significantly different from American on Asian supply chains? Will it change in the future? Can we say that any part of the globe is developing faster than the others in terms of SCM maturity?
