3rd Annual Global Trade and Supply Chain Summit

19 – 20 September 2023

Dubai Marina, UAE


In its third year, Economist Impact’s Global Trade and Supply Chain Summit brings together business leaders and policymakers to discuss the implications of trade policy and practical business logistics. It convenes thought leaders from the entire trade and supply-chain ecosystem and high-level government representatives. 

Topics include supply chain diversification from China, handling sustainability, product traceability, managing data in digital trade, supply chain resilience and trade in emerging regions, among others.

Economist Impact’s decision to host the summit in Dubai reflects the ongoing transformation and regionalisation of global trade and supply chains, and the important role played by emerging markets like the Middle East, Africa and South-East Asia. 

This event welcomes a wide variety of attendees, including business leaders, financiers and academics, underscoring that diversity in the conversation leads to wise reforms and concrete actions.
