Open to registered Supply Chain North East Programme participants* & NEPIC Members

With over 300 member companies, NEPIC is the gateway to so many business opportunities within the process sector. As a partner of Supply Chain North East, we want to work with you and your business to ensure you are armed with the knowledge, skills and tactics that will allow you to access a pipeline of fresh business opportunities in the process industry sector.

To help you diversify, de-risk and grow we’ve developed a series of masterclasses and workshops with some of the North East’s leading professionals.

An introduction to the Process Sector & Wilton Site Tour

This interactive session will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to the process sector – past, present and future; helping you develop an understanding of the process industry sector with a focus on supply chain needs and opportunities. 

Exploring the history of the process sector in the North East can help to develop storytelling and marketing persona toolkits, enabling you to build on the content of the other Masterclasses available. Information about the current landscape and future opportunities will help you identify opportunities and requirements for supply chain entry.

We will help you assess how you can branch out and grow your business in the process sector.

A tour of the Wilton International Site will follow this session.

Competition Law Statement

Trade association meetings have, in the past, been used as a forum for the establishment of cartels and they are therefore the subject of scrutiny by the UK Competition and Markets Authority.

For the purposes of remaining compliant with competition law, members should not discuss commercially sensitive strategic information (including but not limited to, details of proposed or actual pricing, information about target or key customers or expansion plans) in or around NEPIC meetings, including at unofficial get-togethers or over coffee/lunch.
