Bringing business leaders together to discuss what's next for international trade, border control and the new carbon tax.
About this Event

Join Allied Group for Ireland & the UK’s first ever Beyond Borders Conference, a dynamic business event bringing together industry leaders, innovators and decision-makers to discuss the future of international trade, sustainability, border strategy and the growing impact of CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism).

With potentially devastating financial implications for businesses importing products such as steel, cement, fertiliser and hydrogen, CBAM is set to transform the way companies trade across borders.

Many businesses remain unaware of the scale of the changes ahead, the compliance requirements involved, and the potential carbon costs they may soon face.As one of the few certified CBAM training providers in the country, Allied Group is on a mission to educate and support businesses before these new carbon taxes begin to impact operations, supply chains and profitability.

This event is designed to give attendees practical, real-world insight into what CBAM means for their business, how to prepare, and how to stay ahead of upcoming legislation and costs.Through expert keynote speakers, live panel discussions and real-life business examples, attendees will gain valuable guidance on:

Understanding CBAM and carbon reporting obligations

The financial impact of carbon taxes on importers

Preparing supply chains for future compliance

Reducing risk and avoiding unnecessary costs

Leveraging Northern Ireland’s unique dual market access advantage

Northern Ireland remains uniquely positioned with access to both the UK and EU markets, creating significant opportunities for businesses willing to adapt, innovate and strategically position themselves within international trade.

Hosted by Ciaran May and Jim Fitzpatrick, Beyond Borders promises to be an engaging and lively business event featuring top notch networking opportunities, lunch, keynote presentations and expert-led discussions focused on helping businesses navigate the future with confidence.
