Frequently asked questions

What is the focus of the Downstream programme?

It looks at how downstream and industrial players position value chains in a more competitive market, where access to feedstocks and markets shapes how businesses operate and grow.

Who should attend?

Senior decision-makers across downstream and industrial value chains, including refiners, chemical producers, traders, manufacturers and those responsible for how products are produced, moved and sold.

What challenges does the programme address?

It explores how shifting trade routes, tighter supply conditions and changing demand are affecting how products move across markets.

What topics will be covered?

The programme looks at how feedstocks are sourced, how products reach end markets and how different parts of the value chain work together under changing conditions.

Why is this programme important now?

Markets are becoming harder to access and supply is less predictable, putting more weight on how companies organise their value chains and respond to change.
