Event Navigation
Together with our German consulting partner h&z, we are pleased to invite you to the fourth annual Sourcing Roundtable in Munich. The roundtable is part of the 2017 series which already took place in Hong Kong (July 11th) and Shanghai (July 12th). Below you can read some of the most interesting soundbites from both events.
Our topic this year is “Procurement 4.0 – how digital disruption will change your China sourcing strategy.” With industry experts and senior sourcing managers, we will discuss the impact of technology and the potential for innovation along your supply chain:
- Collaborative supplier relations: from transactional procurement to supplier enabled innovation
- Automation and artificial intelligence: will it enhance or replace procurement?
- Speed and agility: leveraging data to catch up with fast-changing consumer preferences
- Made in China 2025: will high-tech China be a less attractive sourcing market, or more?
Read more about this topic in h&z’s new book “Procurement 4.0: A survival guide in a digital, disruptive world”.
Soundbites:
“Even with increasing labour costs, China is still the first choice when it comes to flexibility and speed.”
“The question remains: who is responsible for innovation: the buyer in the HQ or the sourcing office?”
“Procurement has to reinvent itself to drive differentiation.”
“In the future, systems and AI will free us from technical tasks so we can focus on building engagement and trust with suppliers.”
