• (Re-)Industrialisation and Supply Chain Resilience: Strategies for industrial revitalization in Europe and beyond, and their impact on global supply chains.

• Protectionism vs. Collaboration: The balance between protectionist policies and collaborative frameworks in fostering a trans-national industrial ecosystem.

• Global Power Dynamics: The roles and strategies of the USA, China, the EU, and African nations in shaping the future of resource management, industrialisation, and international cooperation.

This event will provide insights into how geopolitical factors influence, and are influenced by, the necessary transformations in sustainability and business.
