Resilient, Cost-Effective and Sustainable Amid Global Disruptions

Harnessing the Power of AI & Digital Innovation in Procurement

Cost Containment, Risk Management and Supply Chain Instability

Transforming Procurement for Sustainable Growth

There are more obstacles than ever between you and your customer. With tariffs, regulatory shifts, and geopolitical instability disrupting flow and continuity, reactive measures are no longer enough. To ensure resilience from raw material to doorstep, procurement leaders must build proactive, end-to-end contingency strategies across sourcing, logistics, and partnerships.

Global supply chain disruptions, economic volatility, spiralling input costs, and sustainability imperatives are reshaping the role of procurement. Today’s CPOs are not only expected to drive digital transformation and ensure operational efficiency, but also to deliver on ESG, risk mitigation, and innovation. The procurement function has evolved from transactional to transformational—core to business continuity, competitive edge, and long-term value creation.

At CPO Nordic 2026, over 600 procurement leaders from across the Nordics will gather to explore how the latest technological innovations, such as AI and advanced data analytics capabilities, can empower procurement to deliver value and sustainability. Discussions will focus on how to boost your sourcing performance, build agile and transparent supply chains, manage risk in an inflationary economy, and navigate the new complexities brought by regulatory pressures.

Join us for a full day of thought leadership, peer exchange, and practical insights into how CPOs can thrive in an era where procurement is central to both business success and sustainability goals. Don't miss the opportunity to learn how to steer your organisation through the next wave of challenges while unlocking new opportunities for growth.

Welcome to the future of Procurement!
