Taking place July 22–23, 2026 at the DC Bar Association, ACI’s Trade Compliance Tech is the only U.S. event designed specifically for professionals responsible for building, implementing, and scaling next-generation trade compliance programs.

Unlike traditional legal or policy-focused conferences, Trade Compliance Tech delivers a hands-on, technology-driven experience. The event convenes a cross-functional audience of trade compliance leaders, government officials, IT and data specialists, supply chain executives, and solution providers to explore how artificial intelligence, automation, and analytics are reshaping compliance operations.

“Trade compliance teams are being asked to do more with greater speed and precision, often without additional resources,” said Yale Deskins, Conference Producer at ACI. “This event was created to give professionals practical tools, real-world examples, and peer insights to help them modernize effectively and confidently.”

Over two immersive days, attendees will gain a comprehensive, end-to-end understanding of the compliance technology lifecycle — from conducting risk assessments and evaluating solutions to securing internal buy-in, operationalizing AI, and measuring return on investment.

Key topics include:

• AI, analytics, and automation trends driving compliance innovation 
• Best practices for selecting and implementing technology solutions 
• Real-world applications of AI in export classification and screening 
• Strategies for securing C-suite support and funding 
• AI-enabled third-party and supply chain risk management 

The program features practical case studies, live demonstrations, and interactive discussions designed to move beyond theory and into execution.

Trade Compliance Tech is ideal for professionals across trade compliance, legal, IT, cybersecurity, supply chain, procurement, and operations who are tasked with improving efficiency, reducing risk, and future-proofing their compliance programs.
