“The capacity to manage risk, and with it the appetite to take risk, and make forward-looking choices, are the key elements of the energy that drives the economic system forward.”
(Bernstein, 1996, “Against the Gods – the remarkable story of risk”, p.3)

This international network was founded in 2001 by a small group of active researchers from the UK, US and Sweden.  Its aim is to facilitate rapid advancement of knowledge and understanding in the field through pro-active engagement and collaboration amongst key researchers and practitioners in this evolving field.  The members regularly exchange and share findings and developments with others in the network.  

The network also exists to provide a core of expertise, information and knowledge which can be accessed by other interested researchers, practitioners and policy makers engaged in supply chain management and the risks associated with increasingly complex and global supply chain configurations and the greater risk exposure. 

ISCRiM Network

The team has grown and developed in the period since its inception and represents a large core of experienced international researchers, writers and publishers within this and related disciplines.  The 35 members are drawn from 20 different countries with representation from leading world-class institutions such as Cranfield and The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) in the UK; Michigan State and Western Carolina universities in the US and Lund University in Sweden.
