Pioneering Strategies to Unlocking the Potential of KRAS
Once labeled “undruggable,” KRAS has emerged as one of oncology’s most promising—yet complex—targets. With nearly 90% of pancreatic cancers and 30-40% of lung and colorectal cancers harboring KRAS mutations, the need for effective therapies is urgent. Recent FDA approvals of KRAS G12C inhibitors have signaled a new era, but the rise of resistance and diverse…

Build a Supply Chain That Bounces Back
In this episode, Aaron Berg explores how River Logic’s value chain optimization platform empowers businesses to stay agile amid real-world disruptions—from global tariffs to port delays, weather events, and shifting demand. By simulating the financial and operational impact of supply chain decisions in real time, companies can rethink sourcing, pricing, and production strategies to protect…
From Tariff Shock to Strategic Advantage
In this episode, Aaron Berg reframes tariff disruptions as a strategic opportunity. With River Logic’s value chain optimization solution, companies can quickly model shifts in sourcing, manufacturing, and make-vs-buy decisions to gain a competitive edge. Whether it’s reshoring production or pivoting in response to new trade policies, VCO helps businesses react fast—and capitalize on change…
Tariffs Are Changing—Is Your Supply Chain Ready?
Aaron Berg highlights how shifting global tariffs are forcing companies to rethink their entire value chain strategies. With international production, sourcing flexibility, and layered tariff schedules, simple cost assumptions no longer cut it. River Logic’s value chain optimization platform enables leaders to model complex what-if scenarios—like staging production across borders—to find the most cost-effective, compliant…
The Mechanics of VCO: Modeling Constraints, Costs, and Markets
Aaron Berg breaks down how River Logic’s value chain optimization (VCO) engine models the full spectrum of operational and financial variables—from manufacturing constraints to supplier contracts and dynamic market conditions. Unlike traditional models that rely on static costs, VCO captures how costs evolve as decisions change—giving leaders real-time insight into the true financial impact of…
