Building Sustainable Supply Chains: Financial, Operational, and Technological Resilience

Supply chains are becoming more complex, more interconnected, and more vulnerable to disruption than ever before. Exporters must navigate financial uncertainty, shifting trade regulations, physical logistics bottlenecks, and mounting technological demands — all while maintaining cost-efficiency and resilience.

This masterclass brings together financial, operational, and innovation experts to explore how UK-based exporters can build smarter, more sustainable supply chains. The panel will cover how to manage forex risk, use technology to solve physical supply chain challenges, and overcome logistics coordination hurdles in international trade.

Attendees will gain clear strategies to enhance visibility, reduce financial and operational exposure, and build resilience across global operations.

What You Will Gain:

  • Managing Financial Risk in Export Supply Chains
    How FX volatility, tariffs, and total landed cost impact pricing, profitability, and sustainability.
  • Technology & Innovation in Global Logistics
    How digital transformation, automation, and visibility tools are solving real-world logistics challenges.
  • Logistics Coordination & Execution in Global Trade
    How exporters can manage complex handovers, interface across supply chain partners, and keep goods moving across borders.
  • Building a Resilient Global Operation
    Actionable steps exporters can take to prepare for disruption, reduce financial exposure, and operate with greater confidence.
