THE UK ’ S LARGEST SUPPLIER DIVERSITY CONFERENCE

For over 10 years , MSDUK have been dedicated to improving diversity in entrepreneurship and driving inclusive procurement . We believe that supplier diversity is an economic and moral imperative . Innovation comes from a diversity of perspectives , so when we limit who can contribute , we in turn limit what problems we can solve .

Diversity within supply chains can not only bring new ideas and solutions to any organisation , but it also brings competitiveness , and boosts market growth . Beyond these commercial benefits , there is the BIG social value supplier diversity brings - reducing socio-economic inequality and creating stronger , more stable communities .

MSDUK welcomes a global audience to the 2018 Conference & Awards in Birmingham . The twoday event is a must-attend conference for Ethnic Minority Businesses ( EMBs ) and Corporations looking to drive inclusive procurement and connect with diverse like-minded businessmen and women .
