About this Event

Advancing Procurement Transformation

Procurement leaders today face mounting cost pressures, supply volatility, and complex organisational expectations. CPO Engage & Dine is designed to create space to reflect, share strategies, and leave with actionable ideas to drive results in your organisation.



A Refined Event Experience

Executive Leaders Network is proud to introduce a newly reformed event format—designed specifically for senior leaders who value depth over volume.



What to Expect:
  • Inspiring keynote sessions and a leadership panel to set the agenda
  • Focused roundtable discussions on the issues that matter most to you
  • A hosted sit-down lunch and networking time for meaningful peer conversations
  • A relaxed closing happy hour to reflect and exchange final insights



Why Attend?
  • A carefully curated, intimate format that respects your time
  • Honest perspectives from procurement peers across industries
  • Actionable insights you can take straight back to your organisation
  • The opportunity to build genuine relationships in a premium setting



Key Discussion Themes:

Building Stronger Partnerships Across the Business

CFOs and CPOs increasingly rely on one another to manage costs, supply stability, and overall performance. Explore how procurement and finance can align priorities, improve information sharing, and work together to achieve business goals in a rapidly changing environment.

Managing Supply Risk in Everyday Operations

Focus on operational risks that affect your team daily. Learn how to assess exposure, respond to fast-moving issues, and use data to anticipate disruptions. Share practical approaches that keep supply chains resilient when conditions shift.

Improving Category Strategies

Shape category plans that deliver measurable results. Examine frameworks for setting targets, gathering evidence, and choosing the right tactics. Discuss strategies for working with stakeholders with differing priorities and gain insights into structured approaches for category decisions.

Getting More Value from Procurement Tools

Explore how to maximise the impact of your existing procurement tools. Discuss adoption challenges, underused features, and ways to simplify user behaviour. Gain practical examples of teams achieving quick wins through better tool configuration.

Practical AI in Procurement for 2026

Understand where AI is delivering genuine value in procurement and how procurement teams intersect with AI-driven initiatives. Review safe, controlled use cases, required team skills, and practical steps to integrate AI into your workflows in 2026.



Who Will Be There?

This event is designed for senior executives, directors, and heads of function who want to connect, learn, and share ideas with peers. Every delegate is invited and confirmed by ELN to ensure the highest calibre of discussion.
