Supply shocks, price volatility, regulatory change and geopolitical uncertainty now reach directly into materials and formulation decisions. For manufacturers of materials and chemicals, resilience is no longer solely a procurement challenge—it is becoming a critical R&D capability.
This webinar will explore how AI can help technical teams identify strategically important raw materials, stress-test formulations against changing supply and cost constraints, and find credible alternatives faster. Attendees will see how AI-guided experimentation can narrow the search space, reduce unnecessary laboratory work and support better-informed decisions without replacing scientific expertise.
Using practical examples, the session will demonstrate how organizations can build more adaptable development workflows, protect product performance and prepare commercially viable alternatives before disruption occurs.
Key Learning Objectives
- Learn how to identify ingredients that create the greatest supply, cost or performance risk.
- Explore ways to stress-test formulations against shortages, price shocks and regulatory changes.
- Understand how AI can accelerate substitution and reduce inefficient trial-and-error testing.
