Redefine. Reskill. Reimagine

The International Human Resource Conference (IHRC) 2026 will bring together senior leaders and decision-makers who care deeply about the future of how India Works, Learns, and Grows. As we meet in New Delhi, we bring with us different perspectives and industry insights, because we believe the same thing: the future of HR won’t be inherited. It has to be built intentionally, with technology and empathy at its core

IHRC sets the stage for high-impact leadership conversations. We go beyond traditional processes to explore the reality of the Sentient Workplace—how we adapt, reskill, and create organizations that thrive in an age of disruptive innovation.

Looking outward from New Delhi, there’s one message we hope echoes beyond this event

The future of work isn’t somewhere far away. It’s starting right here, with all of us, in this moment, and with the courage to think bigger, reskill faster, and move forward with strategic clarity.

About IPSC 2025, Dubai

Pioneering a New Era: UAE’s Role in Building Sustainable Supply Chains for a Better Tomorrow

In recent years, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has transformed into a global hub for trade, innovation, and sustainability. With a focus on economic diversification, the UAE has heavily invested in advanced technologies, renewable energy, and infrastructure, establishing itself as a leader in sectors such as supply chain, logistics, finance, and tourism.

The supply chain ecosystem of UAE is characterized by a sophisticated network of infrastructure, including world-class ports, airports, and free trade zones. Projects like the expansion of road networks and rail systems further enhance logistical capabilities, making the UAE an attractive destination for global businesses.

The UAE’s vision for its supply chain sector aligns with its broader strategic goals, such as the UAE Vision 2021 and the UAE Centennial 2071, which emphasize economic diversification, sustainable development, and technological advancement. Central to this vision is the commitment to enhancing operational efficiency and fostering resilience in the supply chain through digital solutions.

In line with UAE's vision

for fostering a sustainable and resilient supply chain ecosystem

Blue Ocean Corporation

the world leader in supply chain consulting and training, is committed to providing a global platform for knowledge exchange and healthy networking opportunities, featuring top leaders from the supply chain and related domains. We welcome you to the International Procurement and Supply chain Conference (IPSC), revved up and ready in the heart of Dubai.

Happening on the 12th of April 2025

at the W Hotel, Palm Jumeirah Dubai, the event will explore the theme "Redefining Global Trade: UAE Shaping Sustainable Supply Chains for the Future - Digitally Driven, Sustainably Committed" with the Indian cricket legend Saurav Ganguly serving as the Guest of Honour.

Aligning with global trends

UAE’s main focus lies on digital transformation within supply chain management. Understanding various government initiatives, IPSC Dubai aims to position itself at the forefront of this transformation by creating room for discussions, showcasing innovative solutions, and encouraging collaborations that drive efficiency and sustainability across the supply chain landscape.

Connecting the World: UAE's Supply Chain Revolution

The United Arab Emirates, one of the key players in the Middle East, is currently experiencing rapid economic growth and development. As the nation diversifies its economy and attracts foreign investments, the supply chain and logistics industries are set for substantial advancements in the near future.

As the need to address environmental issues rises substantially, UAE’s commitment in integrating sustainability into its supply chain management practices is also receiving great attention. The country actively promotes green logistics through various initiatives, that focus on reducing carbon footprints, optimizing transportation routes, and adopting eco-friendly packaging solutions. This commitment not only enhances the UAE's appeal as a trade hub but also positions it as a leader in responsible supply chain practices.

Moreover, through active participation in international trade organizations and forums, UAE seeks to mark its influence in global supply chains. Initiatives such as the UAE Logistics Strategy 2030, Green Agenda 2030 and the Dubai Industrial Strategy 2030 aim to create a cohesive ecosystem that promotes innovation, connectivity, and sustainable practices across the region. These strategies not only support the UAE's economic diversification goals but also contribute to the overall resilience of global trade networks.
