Phase II - From Conversation to Action:
Building the Next Decade of Global Textile & Apparel Sourcing
Following the remarkable success and powerful industry dialogue generated at the inaugural edition in 2026, the 2nd Global Sourcing Summit 2027 returns as a premier global platform where the world’s textiles & apparel leaders gather to shape the next era of sourcing, manufacturing, trade, innovation and partnership.
The 2027 edition moves beyond identifying challenges and focuses on practical pathways for transformation. As supply chains continue to evolve under geopolitical, environmental, technological and commercial pressures, industry leaders must collectively redesign sourcing ecosystems that are faster, smarter, cleaner and more collaborative.
At a time when global supply chains are being redefined by shifting trade dynamics, evolving consumer expectations, digital transformation, sustainability imperatives and geopolitical realignments, the Summit emerges as more than a conference - it becomes a movement for action, collaboration and future-building.
Bringing together influential voices from across continents - including industry confederations, federations, associations, manufacturers, sourcing leaders, policymakers, technology pioneers, and next-generation business leaders with the NexGen CEOs Summit 2027 held on the sidelines - the Summit will create an unparalleled environment for strategic dialogue and meaningful engagement.
Over two dynamic days, delegates will exchange ideas, challenge conventional thinking and explore practical pathways to build sourcing ecosystems that are more agile, resilient, transparent and responsible. From supply chain diversification and regional integration to digital readiness, sustainability acceleration, nearshoring strategies, manufacturing competitiveness and workforce transformation, the Summit will address the defining questions shaping the future of the global textiles & apparel industry.
The 2nd Global Sourcing Summit 2027 is founded on a simple but powerful belief: the future of sourcing will not be built in isolation - it will be built through collective leadership, open dialogue and bold partnerships.
Held alongside the 3rd Asia Sourcing Show 2027 (Textiles, Apparel & Hometextile) in the heart of Asia - Bangkok, the Summit creates a unique convergence of ideas and opportunities - where conversations move beyond the stage and transform into partnerships, investments and real business outcomes.
This is where industries connect.
This is where perspectives converge.
This is where the future of global sourcing takes shape.
The Summit may conclude in two days - but the journey it begins will define the next decade of global textile and apparel sourcing.
