Is your AI only reading half your procurement data? [breakfast session]
Join Sievo, akirolabs, H&Z and Axpo for a breakfast session that gets into the question every procurement leader is navigating right now: how do you actually work with AI when your data landscape is a mix of clean numbers, messy contracts, supplier emails and strategy documents?
You'll hear a keynote from Samuel Maier, Head of Corporate Category Management at Axpo, on what it takes to make AI work across the full data reality of a large procurement organisation.
Followed by a panel discussion with Sievo, akirolabs and H&Z on the same topic.
Rounding off the morning with time to connect with other procurement leaders before the Summit kicks off.
Seats are limited. Registration requires approval as we want to keep the conversation focused and the room right.
