Procurement leaders today face a pivotal inflection point. While AI offers unprecedented potential, from predictive spend analysis to intelligent supplier selection, the reality on the ground is far more complex. Many procurement teams are still battling with fragmented data, outdated systems, and inconsistent processes that stall digital progress.

The true challenge is not understanding what AI can do, it is knowing where and how to start, and how to scale. As cost pressures mount and regulatory demands rise, Chief Procurement Officers are under increased pressure to reduce inefficiencies while delivering strategic value. Yet too often, AI initiatives remain siloed or superficia, failing to embed across workflows, decision-making, and supplier ecosystems.

This executive panel will move beyond buzzwords to explore what AI in procurement looks like when it works. Together with senior peers, you’ll examine how to overcome organisational resistance, build intelligent data foundations, and align AI to the real metrics that matter, cost, compliance, resilience, and supplier performance.

Whether you are piloting AI or scaling enterprise-wide programs, this is your opportunity to benchmark with peers, challenge assumptions, and define your next move.
