In the process, Dr. Xiaojun Yang learned how time-consuming production is when many individual parts have to be procured from many different manufacturers and suppliers and brought together. This problem led her to found the company Assemblean, which has set itself the task of taking over product procurement for large companies as well as start-ups. The technical term for this service is supply chain management.
"So supply chain [...] is the entire chain from purchasing to production to the finished product at the customer." The founder explains the term herself.
For future founders, Dr. Xiaojun Yang talks about the process of setting up a company and gives tips on how best to do this. She also explains how her company can help in concrete terms and what prerequisites are necessary.
