The 11th Joint Alliance for CSR (JAC) Supplier Forum will take place on 11th – 12th June 2025 in Hong Kong.

In 2025, the Forum will look at one of the biggest sustainability challenges currently facing the industry – the need to implement due diligence approaches which prevent and address sustainability risks in global ICT supply chains.

We will investigate how the focus is being driven by new regulatory and disclosure requirements and the new opportunities this presents with regards to, for example, climate change, energy decarbonisation, health and safety and working conditions.

In addition, JAC will celebrate outstanding supplier achievements across two awards programmes:

• • suppliers that can demonstrate the highest leadership commitment, innovation and achievement of tangible results in delivering excellence on sustainability, and
• • suppliers across different supply chain tiers that have actively and successfully participated in the 2024 JAC audit campaign.

The event will bring together key international stakeholders such as leading telecom operators, ICT sector suppliers, CSR institutions, Government representatives, NGOs and researchers.

There are no costs to attend, but attendees are responsible for paying for their own accommodation and transportation.
