EBG have long experience from creating both real life meetings and online interviews and webinars. One thing is clear – there is a greater need for experience exchange than real life conferences can meet. And there are more people than usually go to a conference that could benefit from getting the same information at the same time.
Our answer to these possibilities and challenges are called Nordic Online Benchmark!
As always when EBG create a meeting, interview or conference we focus on content – enabling quality content during quality time. Apart from listening to great experiences you can ask live questions and participate in live polls, all in all giving you in-depth knowledge free of charge and without leaving the office. The world has never been smaller.
How it works:
- You register once (do let us now if you are planning to bring the team!) Your registration details are only shared with Online partners
- You receive log in details for each session – you and/or members of your team decide what sessions to log in for
- If you log in to all sessions during the day you will receive a summary report of all polls and answers from the day
- The conference should be treated like any other conference – great people sharing their time and experience so we hope you join in!
- Registration is open for end users/practitioners and online partners
Sourcing & Procurement BPO Benchmark schedule October 21st 2015
Most agree that procurement want and need to become a trusted business partner although lowering cost might still be one of the more prominent KPIs measured. Ever thought about how to future proof your sourcing and procurement strategy? Considering how to best optimize both processes, organization and technology? Interested in learning how others view these topics?
This is what Sourcing & Procurement BPO Benchmark is. It might be easy to think that you will get a blueprint into how to best reduce cost by outsourcing sourcing & procurement operations but no – that is not what you will get on October 21st. Simply because there are no simple answers, there is no blueprint. What you will get is different experiences from different choices – both from those who have chosen to outsource and those who have not.
What we offer is different approaches to the same goal – to create as effective and efficient sourcing and procurement operations possible and ad suitable value from a business strategy perspective.
If you are open minded and willing to listen and share your insights – then you should secure your “seat” at Online Sourcing & Procurement BPO Benchmark today! Do like many others – bring the team.
