Learning about Enterprise Procurement:
Procurement teams hold the keys to the enterprise kingdom—but do you know what makes them tick?
In this session, John Licato, Brie Matier, Matt Bauer, MBA, CPPO, CPPB, CPSM, NIGP-CPP, C.M., and Stephanie Garrison (Moderated by Stephen Sopko) will be pulling back the curtain on enterprise procurement: how these teams operate, what influences their decisions, and the strategies SMBs can use to actually get through the door. If you've ever wondered why your pitch isn't landing, this is for you.

Yet another opportunity to leverage AI in the Enterprise to increase efficiency:
Approaches to leveraging AI in automating enterprise contract lifecycles (while maintaining compliance).
From initial evaluation through negotiation to final sign-off and the associated team coordination (IT/Budget-Finance/Compliance/Legal with the counterparty's sales team), AI is cutting timelines and costs while delivering real, measurable returns. John Licato and Animesh N. (Dr. Nighojkar) will share specific use cases that are working right now—not in some distant future.
