Globally, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being applied across a range of supply chain functions to make them more agile, responsive, and resilient. However, supply chain leaders have a limited view of how and where AI delivers the most value in health supply chains, how to identify high impact AI use cases, and the conditions required for successful AI deployment.
With support from the Gates Foundation, Salient Advisory is conducting a case study to provide supply chain leaders with an efficient way to understand which AI solutions are delivering tangible impact in healthcare supply chains.
As part of this work, we will host 2 interactive webinars featuring live demonstrations of 4 AI solutions addressing supply chain challenges related to cost, service and quality, followed by structured discussions on adoption requirements.
These sessions are for supply chain leaders and professionals in government organizations, global health institutions, private-sector and more. The sessions aim to improve attendees’ understanding of how AI can help improve health supply chains, and how to position their organizations to maximize the benefits of AI.
What to Expect
Each 1-hour webinar will feature an overview of the landscape of AI solutions addressing critical supply chain challenges related to cost, service, and quality and live demonstrations from 2 AI solution providers showcasing practical applications for health supply chains. Both webinars will also cover key adoption considerations—including data requirements, policy environment, funding models, and system architecture—and conclude with Q&A sessions, allowing supply chain leaders to engage directly with the featured solution providers.

Coming in June: Full Project Report
Following the webinars, we will publish a 15-20-page report providing a full landscape of identified AI solutions matched to critical supply chain problems, detailed profiles on 5-7 AI solutions, and learnings for governments, global health institutions, supply chain service providers, and AI innovators. The report will be available on our website in June 2026.
