Supply chain security has become a critical concern in 2025 following a series of recent cyber incidents affecting major manufacturers and their extended supply networks.

These events have exposed how vulnerabilities can cause Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers to have their entire production chains and operations impacted.

It is vital that we address the concerns and uncertainty that is in the minds of the businesses. We must use this opportunity to instil confidence in supply chain resilience, and that is what this event aims to deliver.

This event will ultimately aim to empower SMEs across the region to strengthen their cyber resilience and safeguard their place in national and global supply chains.

The sessions in the event will bring together cybersecurity experts, manufacturing leaders and regional partners to explore practical steps businesses can take to protect themselves.

Through two keynote talks including case studies and interactive panel discussion, attendees will gain actionable insights into building secure, resilient and competitive supply chains.

The event will also highlight available regional support and collaboration opportunities to help SMEs embed cyber best practice into everyday operations.
