Summit Background

The continuous turbulences in the global chemical market are having a huge impact on the entire industry landscape, causing both short-term pains and driving profound transformation across the entire value chain. Upstream and downstream firms of the industrial chain must maintain high level collaboration, embrace sustainability, build resilience and agility, accelerate digital and intelligent transformation, promote cost reduction & efficiency improvement, innovate business models, reinvent operational strategies to achieve the reconstruction of supply chain networks and the transformation of value chains.

The traditional supply chain is being disrupted. Trade frictions, geopolitical conflicts, economic downturns, and sluggish demand have made the future full of challenges and uncertainties. Decision makers are reformulating supply chain strategies, continuously promoting transformation and upgrading, and striving to build a future-proofed sustainable supply chain.

The reinvention of chemical supply chain still faces many challenges: How to build a green supply chain across the entire life cycle? How to build resilient and agile supply chains to deal with future uncertainties? How to create end-to-end supply chain visibility? How to balance compliance, sustainability, resilience, cost and customer experience? How to improve logistics efficiency and achieve reliable delivery? How to formulate an effective and executable data strategy & management process? In addition, sustainability & ESG, intelligent decision, demand planning, AI application, hazardous chemicals regulations, trade compliance; smart warehousing & logistics, supply chain talents & working models… have also become the focus of attention.
