Overview

About this event

The BangoPure DPP Conference and Regulatory Summit brings together the most critical minds in European trade compliance for three days of intensive technical programming in the heart of Ireland's innovation corridor. With the European Union's Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR 2027) mandating Digital Product Passports for all goods entering European markets from 2027, this conference addresses the single most consequential regulatory shift in international trade this decade. Delegates will hear directly from regulatory experts, technology architects, and compliance practitioners who are building the infrastructure that every exporting nation will need before the deadline arrives.

Cork provides the ideal setting for this programme. Ireland's unique position as both an EU member state and a gateway for UK-EU trade makes it the natural venue for a conference addressing the regulatory bridge between British and European compliance frameworks. BangoPure's European entity, BangoPure Europe Limited, is headquartered in Dublin, and our presence in the Irish market ensures that delegates receive insights grounded in operational reality rather than theoretical compliance speculation.

Event mission

To equip every delegate with the technical knowledge, regulatory understanding, and operational tools required to achieve Digital Product Passport compliance before the EU's 2027 deadline, positioning first movers as commercially advantaged exporters in the verified sustainable goods market.
