Following the Regional Members Breakfast Meeting, this complimentary event is just for our valued supplier members and will be followed by lunch.


This annual gathering of supplier members is your opportunity to engage with the SSA UK, learn about the latest industry trends/impacts, provide your feedback, and influence the future direction of supplier-to-operator activities.

The focus of the 2023 summit was 'collaboration' and there are many great examples of how SSA UK supplier partnerships have not only boosted business but also provided valuable end-to-end solutions for operators.

But how does an operator choose a supplier, and why? An important question when you consider the impact this decision will have on their business in terms of efficiency, competitiveness, and bottom line. This year's summit will focus on customers, including building profiles, recognising customers as individuals, and tailoring solutions to different circumstances, enabling you to maximise those all-important leads.

Jill Leckie, from Developed by Me, will deliver this important session on B2B Customer First Experiences - what makes a customer choose a supplier?  She will explore who the real B2B customer is, what customer-first means at a B2B level, and how you build a customer-first experience.

The Summit will also cover:

  • The role of the SSA UK and how we help you
  • Flexibility - how quickly can you respond to changing customer demands
  • Industry trends and impacts - how the market is changing, from technology to niche offerings and how your business might help
  • Upcoming SSA UK events - what's happening, where, and what's changing to improve the supplier experience
