Big Ideas Summit 2016: Big Idea #20 – Transforming Sustainability Collaboration

Sustainability is the new frontier for businesses. And procurement will play a key role in the collaborative management of resources.

At the Big Ideas Summit 2016, we challenged our thought leaders to share their Big Ideas for the future of procurement.

From ideas that have the potential to change the very nature of the procurement profession, to ones that got the assembled minds thinking about the profession’s impact outside of the organisation, the response we received was amazing.

Sustainability – The New Business Frontier

Martin Chilcott, Founder and CEO of 2degrees network, believes that sustainability is the new frontier for businesses. He also believes that collaboration will be critical to enable organisations to make the most of increasingly scarce resources.

Martin goes on to say that procurement will be at the heart of this change, responsible for supplier management and collaboration across global and geographically dispersed supply chains.

Catch up with all the delegates’ Big Ideas from the 2016 Summit at the Procurious Learning Hub.
