Who hasn’t got digitalization on the company agenda? Hard to navigate through what areas to push, who need to do what and knowing what the expected benefits should be? EBG are thrilled to welcome Carsten Lutzhøft, Head of Process Digitalization at Novo Nordisk to Sourcing Outlook 2018, taking place in Stockholm on October 11th. He will share his and their view on just that.

Briefly this is how Carsten himself frame his current working space: “Process Digitilization strategy and implementation, RPA (Robot Process Automation) and digital innovation across Global Device and Supply Chain organization.”

At Sourcing Outlook, Carsten will share what it is he and his team are doing at Novo Nordisk and invite you to join the discussion following that presentation.

It is arguably so that RPA and AI (artificial intelligence) is growing rapidly yet we notice within the sourcing and procurement community the desire to discuss what, why, when and who aspects.

The session Carsten will host have limited space – if you see the benefit in discussing the below you should register today. EBG have prolonged the best price rate for all in the Nordics who are returning after this crazy hot summer just now.

Session during Sourcing Outlook

How do you incorporate digitalization with your overall business development?
Digitalization is coming of age and robotic process automation, RPA, and artificial intelligence, AI, is increasingly used across businesses.

About Sourcing Outlook

When you take a couple of days out of the office to go to a conference you should be able to maximize the value in return. What that value is to you – only you can decide, but this is what EBG consider to be maximized value:

  • You should be able to both listen and discuss during a conference (plenum presentations and round table sessions)
  • You should be able to meet with the majority of people on sight (EBG do not do fairs)
  • You should be inspired and learn about challenges and opportunities you face on a daily basis (there are no easy or quick fix ways to implement complex strategies or operations but great lessons learned)
