The insightful conversation will be followed by a leading industry panel drawn from diverse stakeholder groups. The panel will discuss perspectives and industry concerns, and consider how the supply chain is fundamentally faring with prime accountability in regulatory compliance, and strategic operations in the rollout of regulations.

Interactive peer roundtable discussions will allow attendees to share industry lessons learned and recommend actionable strategies.

The program concludes with table ‘calls to action’ and Q&A. Non-attributable recommendations will be recorded and shared post-event.
