What is international Procurement Day?
Procurement in the spotlight
Procurement is the unsung hero of the corporate world. Procurement drives business performance forward. Yet, few people truly recognize the strategic brilliance behind it.
International Procurement Day exists to change that. On April 25th, procurement professionals around the world celebrate their profession, share their work, and inspire the next generation of leaders.
For procurement professionals, staying ahead with the latest technologies, methodologies, and market trends is what separates great from extraordinary.
