Resilience is a capability companies must develop over the long term, and procurement plays a crucial role in making it happen. Procurement is often the first function to detect market shifts, assess risks, and help organizations navigate an increasingly uncertain environment. The decisions made by procurement teams directly impact supply chain stability, business continuity, and the overall competitiveness of the company.
This year’s Procurement Forum programme will focus on how to systematically build resilience in procurement. The agenda will offer practical inspiration in areas such as modern technologies, supplier relationship management, negotiation, and strategic decision-making in times of geopolitical and economic pressure. It will also include insights and forecasts on commodity market developments.
Gain perspectives from experienced leaders alongside practical approaches that help companies respond faster, anticipate connections, and strengthen stability in uncertain times.
Marijn Overvest is the founder of the Dutch learning platform Procurement Tactics and a recognised expert in procurement, negotiation, and the use of AI in procurement. He specialises in strategic procurement, sustainable sourcing, and the practical application of artificial intelligence in procurement processes. He is also the author of Artificial Intelligence in Procurement, a book that bridges theory with practical examples of how AI can be applied in procurement.
Throughout his career, he has led negotiations with more than 500 suppliers and managed procurement processes and contracts worth over €500 million. His experience spans the entire procurement cycle, from tender preparation and negotiation strategies to execution and supplier management. Alongside his business activities, he also teaches at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, where he bridges academia and business practice in Procurement & Supply Management.
At Procurement Forum, he will explore global trends in the adoption of AI in procurement and how its use is expected to evolve in the years ahead. He will show where artificial intelligence delivers the greatest value for procurement, where its limitations can prevent tangible results, and what practical steps procurement professionals can take as soon as the very next day.
We will prepare a partnership for you tailored to your needs.
