Participants addressed issues of quality control, maintaining the necessary level of competence, and implementing new regulatory approaches within the sector. The session highlighted issues such as improving supplier qualifications, the need for regulatory authorities to adapt to changing market structures, and the involvement of international development banks in supply chain financing.

In her speech at the session, Esra Songur, Akkuyu Nuclear Inc. Sustainable Development and Energy Companies and Business Associations Relations Director, touched upon the increasing export potential of companies involved in the Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant construction project and noted the following:

By producing equipment and materials for the nuclear industry that meet high-quality standards, Turkish companies are becoming more competitive in the global market and hope to participate in other nuclear power plant construction projects. In this context, the BRICS Nuclear Platform's expert meetings foster sustainable business connections. The experience and support of BRICS participants create even broader opportunities in supply chain management and help national companies integrate into global technology chains.
