UNIDO/KCG Conference: Developing Inclusive and Sustainable Global Value Chains in the Digital Age

The Conference will take place on September 18-19, 2017 in Kiel, Germany. It aims at bringing together academics, policy makers, representatives from international organizations and businesses to discuss the challenges and opportunities – and the possible future – of the proliferation of global value chains (GVCs). The focus is on how to make the most of global production sharing in the digital age and to ensure that GVCs are shaped in such a way as to foster “inclusive” and “sustainable” development of all countries involved.
