Blockchain and Supply Chain Management combines discussions of blockchain and supply chains, linking technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, satellite imagery, and machine vision. The book examines blockchain's basic concepts, relevant theories, and its roles in meeting key supply chain objectives. The book addresses problems related to inefficiency, opacity, and fraud, helping the digitization process, simplifying the value creation process, and facilitating collaboration. The book is balanced between blockchain and supply chain application and theory, covering the latest technological, organizational and regulatory developments in blockchain from a supply chain perspective.

The book discusses the opportunities, barriers, and enablers of blockchain in supply chain policy, along with legal and ethical implications. Supply chain management faces massive disruption with the dynamic changes in global trade, the impact of Covid-19, and technological innovation. Entire industries are also being transformed by blockchain, with some of the most promising applications in supply chain management.

Containing multidisciplinary practical insights, from technology, economics, and sociology, Kshetri expands on the transformative and disruptive impacts of the metaverse. He argues that despite the current deceleration in investment, these technologies hold immense potential to revolutionize economies, politics and the environment in the long term. Ultimately, this book illuminates the economic and social potential of augmented and virtual reality and identifies the opportunities and barriers to successful implementation.

The Rise of Web3 and the Metaverse is an essential read for students and researchers of disruptive technologies and AI, information systems, and the economics of innovation. Policymakers within NGOs, development institutions and government agencies will also find the insights presented here beneficial.

Nir Kshetri’s multidisciplinary investigation documents the key concepts and current state of GAI and analyzes its impact on individuals, markets, and nations. He identifies the drivers and obstacles for the wider adoption of GAI, such as governance, cybersecurity and privacy issues, deriving insights from successful GAI implementations, such as ChatGPT and other large language models. Kshetri goes on to offer recommendations for the best practices to yield benefits for both individuals and organizations, outlining the broad impact of GAI across diverse sectors and discussing its implications for policy and business strategies. The book underscores the transformative potential of GAI while addressing ethical, environmental, and labor-related challenges in its implementation.
