European Procurement & Supply Chain Excellence Summit 2026
Supply chain and procurement leaders aren’t just reacting to change - they are defining what comes next. In a world shaped by geopolitical shifts, trade realignments, and rising tariffs, these functions are stepping forward as strategic, connected, and future-focused drivers of growth. The challenges are real - global complexity, shifting markets, disruptive technologies - but so are the opportunities.
Who Attends: Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs), Chief Supply Chain Officers (CSCOs), VPs and Heads of Sourcing, Excellence, Logistics, Operations, Transformation, Strategy, Innovation and Risk Management.
Summit Topics:
Geopolitics & Trade: Adapting sourcing and supplier strategies to shifting rules and rising risks
Strategic Resilience: Building transparency, continuity, and agility into supply networks
Data-Driven Decisions: Real-world AI, predictive analytics, and live data in action
Making AI Useful: Where AI delivers value—and where it doesn’t
Operational Sovereignty: Ensuring control and continuity at regional, plant, and system levels
Next-Gen Models: Agile, cross-functional ecosystems replacing static structures
Leadership & Talent: Building digitally fluent teams and leading culture-first change
At the BME European Procurement & Supply Chain Excellence Summit 2026, C-level executives gather to do more than react. They gather to confront complexity with clarity, get new insights, explore new partnerships, and gain the confidence to lead transformation - across borders & functions.
