Global Summit 2022 | The Consumer Goods Forum | 19 June 2022 | TBA, Dublin, Ireland

Our industry has been at the forefront of mitigating the impact of the Covid-19 crisis since it was thrust upon us. At the same time, we have had to find new ways to make progress on critical challenges and drive actions towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This has required us to find new levels of resilience as we worked tirelessly – from the CEOs to the teams on the factory or shop floors – to ensure goods continued to move along the supply chain, shelves remained stocked, employees and customers were kept safe and progress was made on issues like plastic waste, deforestation, consumer health and food safety. It’s been a very complex time that has also forced us to rethink how we operate.

This summit we will take stock of what we have achieved, share key learnings and highlight genuine success stories. However, more critically, we will explore how we need to shift and transform and look ahead to where businesses need to focus. What can the lessons of yesterday teach us about tomorrow? What impact do the COP26 commitments have on our businesses? How can we drive progress further and faster through both global and regional actions? Are shareholders ready for purpose-driven businesses? And, how do we reinvent ourselves for this new era of growth?

We know business leaders have much to contemplate because we speak to them every day. That’s why we are thrilled to be back to in-person events and to host this exclusive community again, where you can meet face-to-face with your peers and explore all the topics that are front-and-centre of a CEO’s mind. Never has it been more important for our industry to step-up to the challenges associated with achieving the UN SDGs and creating a positive impact at scale, and we know from experience that there is no better venue than the one hosting the Global Summit to talk, engage and plan for the future.

We look forward to seeing you there!
