EcoProcura 2014

Sustainability, innovation and cost efficiency: taking procurement forward

24 - 26 September 2014, 12:00 - 14:00
Ghent, Belgium

The EcoProcura 2014 conference will be held in Ghent (Belgium) on 24 - 26 September 2014. Targeted to procurers from all levels of government, policy-makers, business, suppliers, manufacturers, multipliers and representatives from the European Commission and European Parliament, the conference will have the theme of examining sustainable public procurement from the perspective of cost-efficiency.

The conference will fully explore this theme through examining the cost-efficient use of public money through procurement, the development of integrated sustainable public procurement strategies, implementing the new European Public Procurement Directives and asking how public procurement can stimulate innovation.

EcoProcura is the ninth edition of the successful EcoProcura conference series. An interactive conference programme will ensure that ideas, experiences, guidelines and opinions are shared throughout. The conference will offer plenty of opportunities for good practice exchange, dialogues between business and the public sector and finding out about the latest initiatives and projects. There will also be a 'meet the buyers' event and several short training sessions.
