Session highlights

  • Strategic sourcing continues to be a leadership priority to drive organizational objectives such as cost reduction, digital transformation, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). In this session, you will learn how enterprises are using Amazon Business digital purchasing solutions to increase agility and efficiency, and accelerate growth. You’ll hear about strategies and best practices from global Fortune 500 companies to help you reshape buying.

  • The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, trade wars, supply chain issues and an inflationary environment have created an unparalleled opportunity for procurement leaders to rise to the occasion and elevate the role of the profession. In this session, we will explore the key trends that procurement leaders should focus on as they continue to grow the function’s influence in 2022 and beyond.

  • Ensuring strong controls and spend management have been at the center of procurement strategy for decades. The past few years have thrown these models off-balance, and combined with the accelerating pace of business, organizations are recalibrating what it means to be both efficient and agile. In this session, learn how organizations are using agile procurement processes to adapt decentralized work environments and manage risk exposure while building supplier redundancy.

  • Even with environmental and sustainability goals in place, many organizations do not have effective sourcing strategies or the right technology to purchase more responsibly. In this session, you will learn how to implement successful programs to easily identify and source from credentialed diverse, local, and small businesses, and how to use digital tools to gain visibility into purchasing patterns to help track progress with sustainability goals.

  • Digitizing procurement operations has allowed many organizations to meet sourcing demands, boost productivity, and optimize costs. In this session, you will uncover ways to use intelligent procurement, powered by machine learning and analytics, to automate and simplify processes for your teams to buy for work, track spend and purchasing patterns for improved decision making, and scale digital procurement through integrations and payment solutions.

  • Rapid growth can come with long vendor lists, tedious invoices, and lack of visibility into spending. In this session, we’ll show you how businesses can automate routine buying processes to save time and simplify operations, make better data-driven decisions using real-time analytics, and empower employees with the tools and business selection they need for work.

  • For businesses of any size, digitalization is no longer an option. Hear from a panel of leaders on how they are simplifying employee purchasing with a one-stop shopping experience, customized buying policies, and convenient delivery options – all with the familiar purchasing experience of Amazon.

We will share tips on how to get the most from your Business Prime membership, demo our most popular features, and highlight how organizations use tools such as Guided Buying and Spend Visibility to gain spend intelligence and improve decision making.

  • Many organizations have documented CSR initiatives, but buying from local, diverse, and more sustainable suppliers can be a manual and time-consuming process. Organizations can purchase over 200,000 products with the Climate Pledge Friendly label from 39 certifiers. Certifications include EPEAT and ENERGY STAR, and certifiers such as Forest Stewardship Council. Learn how to implement organization-wide or departmental buying policies that reinforce your organization’s CSR purchasing goals, such as preferring local and diverse sellers and purchasing products with sustainability certifications.

To bring greater value and scale for growth, organizations need tools that empower them to work more productively. Hear how European companies are using Amazon Business payment solutions to automate accounting and administrative tasks; reshape buying processes with more innovative solutions; and drive efficiency in purchasing and beyond through eInvoicing, Pay by Invoice (PBA), Invoiced by Amazon (IBA), and many more solutions.

  • Digital transformation (DX) has become increasingly important in the era of uncertainty. Purchasing has become an important area where digitization is required to reduce costs and improve productivity. How have Japanese organizations adopted DX and what are the unique challenges to implementing it? In this session, we will discuss new regulations and demonstrate eInvoicing to help accelerate digitization.
