The Strait of Hormuz. Ukraine. Yemen. Trade policy shifts. Geopolitical pressure can move through supply chains, vendors, and operations at once.
In Verdantix’s survey, the share of risk leaders rating geopolitical issues as important rose from 52% in 2025 to 75% in 2026. Yet 34% rely on public sources for geopolitical risk intelligence, and 15% don’t monitor it at all.
This gap, between what matters and what’s actually being watched, is where organizations get caught flat-footed.
Watch this webinar (45 min) where Tara Lynch and Luis Niño discuss that gap, the blind spots in third-party networks, and how organizations can use external signals to plan for disruption.
What you’ll learn:
- How geopolitical risk cascades: through supply chains, vendors, and operations
- Why third-party networks have blind spots: siloed systems can obscure exposure to critical suppliers
- How to move from reaction to early warning: use external intelligence and scenario planning to prepare for disruption
Speakers: Tara Lynch, Product Director at Signal AI & Luis Niño, Senior Risk Manager at Verdantix
