As anyone involved in procurement will tell you, innovation is key. And the launch of the first ever ‘virtual’ procurement technology event - November’s ProcureTech LIVE (coming soon to a comfy chair near you) is set to raise the bar once more.

As valuable as conventional tradeshows and conferences are – the time, travel and associated costs can sometimes prove a serious barrier to attendance. Which is why ProcureTech offers something really different. It offers global procurement professionals and IT decision makers the opportunity to learn, interact and network without leaving either their home or office – all live through the internet in ‘virtual’ environment.

For technology providers themselves, this event will offer a unique stage to show off what’s fresh, exciting and new in procurement technology. And with executives from across the world able to ‘attend’ the event at any time, there will never be a better opportunity to reach a captive audience.

Among the procurement technology topics being covered at the event will be; eProcurement; eSourcing; Contract Management; Services Procurement; Spend Management; Spend Analysis; Software as a Service (on-demand); and Supplier Networks.

With all the hallmarks of a traditional conference and tradeshow – although in this instance it’s up to you to decide when you want to leave your seat and grab a cappuccino – you’ll be able to attend presentations, key note sessions and view literature. In addition you’ll have the opportunity to participate in ‘live’ webcasts and speak to product specialists from wherever you are in the world.

This is the first procurement event of its kind and demonstrates how innovation can help cut costs whilst delivering an event that people will be talking about for years to come.
