The MIT Global Supply Chain and Logistics Excellence (SCALE) Network was formed in 2003 with the opening of the Zaragoza Logistics Center (ZLC) in Zaragoza, Spain. It expanded with the opening of the Center for Latin American Logistics Innovation (CLI) in Bogotá, Colombia in 2008, and the creation of the Luxembourg Centre for Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LCL) in 2015. The Ningbo China Institute for Supply Chain Innovation (NISCI) was opened in 2016, and the UK Supply Chain and Logistics Excellence Centre (LBORO) formally opened at Loughborough University (UK) in 2024, with its first student cohort in the class of 2026.

Collectively, the MIT Global SCALE Network now spans to six centers of excellence on four continents, with over a dozen educational programs (both online and residential), more than 55 academic partners, 80 researchers and faculty, 150 corporate partners, and over 1200 alumni working worldwide.
