Exploding hoverboards have been all over the news lately, especially as these boards were very popular as holiday gifts. Based on the number of incidents of the boards exploding or catching fire, many retailers including Amazon.com and Target stopped selling them before Christmas, and several commercial airlines banned them aboard their aircraft. Why is it for example, that China can build a $589,000 Lamborghini Estoque, but not a safe hoverboard? And who is responsible when a defective product is imported into the United States? In this talk, Ms. Coates will address these questions by discussing the facts about global supply chains, poor quality products, patent infringement, outdated safety standards, and the potential for high profits with knock-off brands within the extremely competitive manufacturing community in China. Rosemary Coates is the the President of Global Supply Chain consultancy Blue Silk Consulting, and the Executive Director of the Reshoring Institute. She has been a global supply chain management consultant for 25 years, with an impressive list of over 80 global supply chain clients. Ms. Coates is an Amazon bestselling author with five books She earned an MBA from University of San Diego and a BS in Business from Arizona State University.
