The Working Capital Team is delighted to invite you to join us for our 2nd Annual Responsible Supply Chain Summit, set to take place in San Francisco at the Presidio on October 8, 2024.
As the only early-stage VC fund dedicated exclusively to technologies that promote ethical supply chains and protect workers' rights, we are thrilled to offer a unique opportunity for various stakeholders to come together and delve into the latest trends within a close-knit and exclusive environment.
The Summit will bring together a select group of stakeholders working at the intersection of impact investing, technology, inequality, climate justice, workers' rights and supply chains with the goal of generating a deeper understanding of ways to drive responsible business practices through ethical supply chain transformation. Topics of discussion will include the evolving regulatory environment, new technological innovations driving greater supply chain visibility and accountability, and the steps required to ensure that the transition to a green economy is fair and equitable.
Your participation and contribution to these discussions would be greatly valued and we would be delighted for you to join us.
