About this Event
Supply chains are where responsible business is won or lost. For most organisations, the majority of environmental and social impact, and a growing share of operational and reputational risk, sits not in their own operations but across their suppliers, especially the small and medium-sized firms that make up the bulk of every value chain.
Join us for the UCL Centre for Sustainable Business's annual summit, where leading voices from business, finance and research will discuss how to establish sustainable supply chains: from measuring progress and engaging SME suppliers to the role of AI and data in making supply chains transparent and resilient.
The panel will draw on insights from our invitation-only afternoon workshop with senior leaders, followed by audience Q&A and a networking reception.
