BrazilINDEVCO Consultancy concludes inaugural Commodity Supply Chain Conference
INDEVCO Consultancy has successfully concluded the inaugural edition of the Commodity Supply Chain Conference, providing industry leaders and decision makers in the commodity landscape with an international platform to foster alliances, explore new opportunities, and facilitate collaboration within the evolving supply chain ecosystem.
Held from October 22-24 in Limassol, Cyprus, the event organized by INDEVCO attracted over 200 participants from 25 industries and more than 20 countries, reflecting the global scope of the challenges and opportunities within the supply chain industry.
A diverse array of thought leaders, including over 20 high-level speakers, contributed to the event’s content, ensuring that discussions were grounded in both local and global perspectives. Sessions were designed not only to inform but also to facilitate actionable outcomes, offering participants practical insights that could be implemented within their respective organizations.
Building on its 20 years of experience and a diversified portfolio of global events and exhibitions across industries and regions, INDEVCO Consultancy was tasked with organizing the event. The approach to the event was rooted in a strategic framework designed to address key industry challenges and trends.
INDEVCO Consultancy’s strategic planning and execution were integral to the conference’s success not only providing consulting advice and guiding the day-to-day execution, but also becoming partners in driving transformation and helping organizations achieve their potential.
Optimizing networking & partnerships
Networking and collaboration were central to the conference's structure. Sponsor tabletops and dedicated networking sessions enabled participants to connect with industry leaders, suppliers, and innovators, facilitating business development opportunities and strategic partnerships. The event’s deliberate design ensured that attendees could engage in meaningful conversations with decision-makers from across the commodity supply chain ecosystem.
Both the gala and casual dinners provided further opportunities for informal networking, contributing to a collaborative environment that extended beyond formal sessions.
The conference also addressed key business trends, such as supply chain adaptability and the integration of digital technologies. Discussions focused on solutions for overcoming supply chain disruptions, improving logistics efficiency, and enhancing transparency, all of which are critical for companies aiming to future-proof their operations.
Cultural engagement
The conference also facilitated cross-cultural engagement, with participants from various regions contributing to a global dialogue on supply chain strategies. This diversity enriched discussions, providing a broader understanding of the challenges and solutions being implemented across different regions.
Cyprus – a hub linking Europe with MENA
Cyprus was strategically chosen as the venue for the conference due to its role as a key business hub linking Europe with the MENA region and the Far East. This location facilitated access to critical markets and positioned the event as a gateway for discussions on cross-border trade and international investment.
One of the conference's most notable outcomes was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Invest Cyprus and Invest Paraná, underscoring the conference’s role in building strategic alliances across countries. The MOU aims to foster trade, investment, and regional economic resilience.
Establishing INDEVCO Consultancy on the conference map
The success of the inaugural event sparked a wave of positive reviews by visitors, and recognition from local and international media, including industry media and TV channels Alpha TV and Sigma TV. Building on the success of the first edition, INDEVCO has confirmed it will run a second edition next year, with INDEVCO Consultancy again lined up to lead the conference strategy and execution.
