Nearshoring, Reshoring, Cybertheft and Regulatory Restriction: IndustryWeek's Weekly Reads

July 1, 2022

As we step into July and the start of 2022's second half, IndustryWeek takes a last look back into June with this edition of IW's Weekly Reads. Supply chain-related content dominated the top three spots of our review of the most-read content from the past seven days, with nearshoring and reshoring nabbing the attention of our IW manufacturing community. 

The U.S. Supreme Court's decision to limit the government's ability to regulate greenhouse gases was late-breaking news that raced up the charts of the most read, and word of another cyber security breach also stole into this week's Top 10.

Without further ado, what follows is IW's top-consumed content over the past seven days, plus one Editor's Choice selection. Take a moment to catch up with your reading.
