Ardent Partners’ annual CPO Rising 2019 Summit was held on October 29 and 30th at the historic Harvard Club of Boston, in the city’s posh Back Bay district. Simply put, the event was a smash!

This year’s Summit hosted just over 120 delegates, who descended upon Boston with the individual goals of learning the latest trends and best practice ideas and expanding their network and the collective goal of driving the procurement profession (and the role of the CPO) forward.

The fantastic presentations, unique setting, executive audience, and intimate environment have become the trademarks of the CPO Rising Summit. Over the next few days, we will share some of the scenes from the 2019 Summit while also reminding each of you to save the dates – October 27 & 28, 2020 for CPO Rising 2020!
