WHAT IS WOMEN IN PROCUREMENT & SUPPLY CHAIN 2020?

LEADING THE FUTURE OF PROCUREMENT AND SUPPLY CHAIN THROUGH CONTENT, COMMUNITY AND EMPOWERMENT

Now in its 6th year, Women in Procurement & Supply Chain is THE established calendar event and annual meeting place for procurement and supply chain professionals.

This year we are doing things a little differently! With current uncertainty surrounding company policies and travel restrictions, this year’s event will be virtual.

You’ll still get all the good stuff a live event offers, just without the travel and quite so much hand sanitizer!

Experience the remarkable stories, strategies and latest procurement trends powering the future of the function, this year from the comfort of your home or work office:

Social and sustainable procurement
Diversity measures in the supply chain
Technology for more efficient agile transactions and collaboration
How to develop and improve crucial leadership and people skills
Procurement in the time of COVID-19

“A very welcome celebration of fabulous women, innovation and practical procurement approaches, in a respectful, inclusive & engaging forum - what’s not to love?” - 2019 attendee.
