This is the second of my two part podcast series on the challenges of vaccinating everyone against Covid-19. If you missed episode one with Alina Gross, you can check it out here.

Background - in August a colleague of mine Alina Gross (@gross_alinaa on Twitter) penned an excellent in-depth piece of Forbes titled The Next Supply Chain Challenge: How To Vaccinate The World.

I was reminded of that recently when Pfizer and BioNTech announced the successful results of their vaccine trials.

A couple of days later I was made aware that SAP announced its Vaccine Collaboration Hub (VCH) to address many of the challenges highlighted in Alina's article.

I reached out to Alina, and members of the VCH team to see if they'd come on the podcast to discuss this unique supply chain challenge, and they agreed, so here we are. In this episode Chris Roediger talks about how SAP's Vaccine Collaboration Hub is addressing many of the issues facing the successful rollout of a vaccine to the world's nearly 8 billion people.

This was a really interesting episode of the podcast. I thoroughly enjoyed it, I learned loads, and I hope you do too.
