ESG Procurement Conference 2023 | Quest Events | 5 September 2023 | Aerial UTS Function Centre, Building 10, Level 7/235 Jones St, Ultimo NSW 2007, Australia

Arguably one of the most important factors in a business’s long-term value and resilience, ESG has emerged as a critical component of the procurement function.
It is a significant challenge for all organisations, and one that is being taken seriously at the board level.
The ESG Procurement conference is back in 2023, designed to help organisations transform their procurement operations to deliver tangible ESG benefits, with practical case studies, information sharing across industries and valuable benchmarking.
It’s where you can hear how some of Australia’s leading organisations are tackling this generational challenge, and how you can improve your own procurement processes and strategies to meet your ESG goals.
If you work in procurement, sourcing, supply chain or sustainability, then this is a not-to-be-missed event

BENEFITS OF ATTENDING:
• Hear how some of Australia’s leading organisations are tackling sustainability in their supply chains and procurement practices
• Get insights into how environmental, social and governance challenges are evolving over the next decade
• Discover how you can look beyond your first-tier suppliers and ensure your ESG values are replicated through the supply chain
• Uncover the technologies designed to help improve your ESG outcomes
• Hear about the business-wide transformation that can occur when you lead a business with purpose
