Description

How can we ensure supply chains remain resilient and sustainable in the face of disruptions ranging from natural disasters and conflict to climate change and pandemics? For manufacturers and sellers, the sustainability dilemma is creating products responsibly without harming the environment or exploiting labor. Out of sight cannot be out of mind, which is the challenge of sustainable supply chains.

We will hear a keynote on Emerging Trends in Supply Chain Sustainability and dive into market trends, the transformative impact and opportunities of AI and Blockchain on supply chains, and the critical ESG reporting barriers for SMEs. Speakers representing every step of the supply chain, from logistics service provider to customer, will share practical challenges in meeting sustainability targets and successful strategies and discuss the role of critical partnerships.

Come to this dynamic session with industry leaders, small businesses, and government representatives. Let's dive deep into cutting-edge technologies and sustainable procurement best practices to explore what's working in building future-proof and inclusive supply chains.
