Exiger Exchange

Where Global Affairs Meets Operational Reality

A premier forum podcast for conversations at the intersection of global affairs, trade, supply chains, and risk—bringing together senior leaders to examine the decisions shaping the global economy.

Overview

This is not commentary from the sidelines.

Get ready for a front-row seat into how policy is formed. Hosted by Exiger’s Kit Conklin, Exiger Exchange is a limited edition podcast series that also prepares you for what comes next.
