Welcome to Marie Nordhemmer, CPO and Piya Hossain, Head of Indirect Procurement at Länsförsäkringar who are joining CPO Outlook 2023!
The basis of all EBG summits are to ask knowledgeable people what they want to discuss with peers. If you have the chance to sit down in an informal setting and discuss what they too find interesting – what would it be.
On October 18th and 19th you who join CPO Outlook in Stockholm can choose to join the round table discussions hosted by Marie and Piya. They invite you to discuss;
How do procurement need to work in the future if all suppliers are a potential risk?
That make you think, right? For long procurement have segmented suppliers and efforts according to the Kralic matrix. in 1983, Peter Kraljic argued that two key dimensions should be used when mapping supply items: risk and profitability.
But what if all suppliers are a potential risk? What if you are required by law to know all your suppliers – take EU sanctions for instance. In a heartbeat you need to know what your business relationships are. The tail may be one of the biggest risks for many companies – not the least.
These discussions will be interesting – consider what you can learn from each other! How can procurement relate to all possible and actual risk scenarios? Especially since procurement many times do not own the relationship after the contract is signed.
Register today – seats are limited and there will be about 40 round table discussions and 10 workshops to choose from. All with limited seats to enable great experience exchange.

About CPO Outlook
EBG know time is something many in procurement do not have. Still much of what is required by the function and you require just that – time. Learning from others experiences save you time. It reassures you if you are in the rights track (combined experiences). Or help you get on track if you are unsure how to move ahead.
Over the years EBG have helped companies get to know one another through the people meeting at an EBG summit. You hear someone mentioning a strategy you find interesting that spark a continued discussion. You ask a question and someone have the same experience.
This can only happen though the diversified discussions EBG enable each summit since 2010. Otherwise you are stuck at high level insights that will inspire you bit leave you with more questions than when you came.
Take a look at the 2022 >>Post Summit Report. We could finally meet in person again after three years and 129 online round table discussions.
That time should be used with care – the time spent when you leave the office. If possible you should be able to leave with some questions answered and new questions to explore.
