The Power of Forward Linkages: Turning Data into Dollars - IMPLAN Webinars

January 2026 - Stop just looking backward at the supply chain. IMPLAN's new Forward Linkages suite empowers you to look downstream and quantify how changes in a commodity's price or supply ripple through the rest of the economy. This webinar demonstrates three distinct playbooks for turning this advanced data into actionable business intelligence. Join IMPLAN's Education Services Specialist, Nadège Ngomsi, and Director of Education Services, Eric Clower, for an in-depth exploration of forward linkage analysis. Learn how to use the Cost-Push (Price Change) Guide to model the impact of inflation, tariffs, or cost-saving innovations. Discover how the Downstream Industry Contribution Guide reveals which industries depend on your product. The session features three compelling client personas—an operations VP, an ESG director, and a government affairs expert—each with a unique problem solved by forward linkage modeling.

A methodology for demonstrating the downstream environmental benefits of green products using the Downstream Industry Contribution Guide. How to interpret forward linkage results to show cost savings, GDP contributions, and supply chain dependencies.
