This is great and I look forward to seeing students interact with professionals. This way we can learn both from each other 🙂

Could we integrate the profile with e.g. LinkedIn?
That would be nice IMHO. Or provide links to social profiles. Just thinking out loud here.

I’ll check it out. But I find it interesting that the media is reporting the threat of nuclear arms suddenly as if it came out of nowhere. The threat of nuclear arms has been an actual topic for over decades and I remember years ago when Russia stated they would upgrade their arsenal instead of reducing it completely Europe just reacted mildly with an “ok…. that is cool”. Not that I am advocating Russia’s current move but the fact that they started this war is not a big surprise. And the lack of motivation of European NATO member states suddenly is starting to shift, especially that of Germany.

Yes, according to officials there they cancelled the quarantine of Wuhan. There are no more new reported cases there. I am wondering now that there is an ease in restrictions if we get any contradicting information on the numbers.

The current ban on traffic imposed by the White House might have a small temporary effect but….
In the long run I think the discussion on warehousing is more interesting. The current economic system works with small margins and there is no warehousing and stockpiling of certain necessities like we did 50 years ago. And this doesn’t mean that everybody should be a prepper, but the government could be better prepared with stockpiling in my opinion.

So it is an interesting discussion, the virus doesn’t care where it is so the US and other countries are forced to work together to fix this problem. Even if you curb the infections this season there is no guarantee it will return later this year in a slightly mutated form.

So Dun & Bradstreet recently published an interesting White Paper on the Corona Virus and its impact.
Some of the highlights are:
– Business Impact in China
– Impact to the Global Supply Chain

You can download the White Paper here: https://www.dnb.com/perspectives/supply-chain/wuhan-coronavirus-business-impact.html

They also provide an interactive map at: https://public.tableau.com/profile/d.b5729#!/vizhome/CoronaVirusOutbreak/Geography

Ah, we are going to reorganize the group/forum structure.

[Sergei Oudman]

So for so good, although I am having some trouble getting around the groups and the forums.
