These discussion sessions have been at the heart of our events since the first EcoProcura and have always been popular.

Leave the conference with increased ability to apply circular procurement, assess the sustainability of your supply chains, develop approaches to innovation, make your procurement policy happen in practice, and many more essential procurement skills.
