The CPO Rising 2K20 Virtual Summit – The Resiliency Imperative wrapped up yesterday, and while the live-streamed event is finished, the team at Ardent Partners is still going over all of the great presentations and discussions that were had. The three hour live Summit included a blend of keynote presentations, virtual panels, and discussions with leading Chief Procurement Officers, CEOs, industry analysts, and other supply management experts. The Summit was the culmination of a six-week series focused on the key strategies that procurement, supply chain, finance, and HR leaders will need to get through this period of adversity and uncertainty. The Virtual Series included web-based presentations, panels, and interviews with leading business executives, industry analysts, and other experts, as well as Ardent’s latest research on resiliency, agility, and the State of Procurement.

The team at Ardent Partners wanted to give a special thanks to the more than 20 speakers who were a part of both the Virtual Summit and all of the individual sessions. These speakers gave thought-provoking presentations on a diverse range of topics surrounding the procurement function and have inspired our listeners to take action and develop the tools necessary to make their own procurement teams more agile, intelligent, and better prepared for the uncertain times ahead. We also wanted to thank the attendees with whom we got to share these last six weeks of sessions with. We hope they have returned to their teams (virtually speaking) energized and ready to share all that they learned; amplifying the strategies necessary to bring procurement to the next level.
