AIM-PROGRESS organizes regular events globally to provide a forum for suppliers to learn, network and share best practices while engaging with customers on responsible sourcing. The intent is for suppliers to gain a better understanding of pressing supply chain sustainability topics, such as labour rights, for example, and to learn about concrete actions that can be taken to drive change and build more sustainable supply chains within their own and extended value chains. Since 2009, AIM-PROGRESS organized over 30 such sessions globally, reaching over 3,000 companies.
The most recent supplier events in the last quarter took place in Gurgaon, India and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, as well as in Bangkok, Thailand where AIM-PROGRESS supported the Consumer Goods Forum’s forced labour workshop. Event presentations can be viewed on the AIM-PROGRESS website.
Further supplier events are being planned for 2018 as we look to target specific geographies, issues and commodities.
