Who Should Attend ProcureCon Indirect?
        This cross-industry event typically attracts between 300-350 strategy-level executives in corporate/indirect procurement roles
        (typically at Fortune 1,000 organizations). Keeping the event at this size allows for the extensive networking we advocate, which
        is why we have both an East and West coast edition of ProcureCon Indirect (the next west coast edition is taking place
        September 16-18 in Las Vegas, NV).

        "The conference was perfect for me. I am not a professional procurement person and portions of the procurement area
      have recently fallen under my scope of responsibility. I wanted a conference that was strategic enough to help me connect
          the dots and better understand the logistics and procurement challenges that a high growth organization is likely to
       face…the conference met this need. I also wanted a conference that gave some tactical or “how to” best practices that I
         could potentially begin to execute upon the return to my office…the conference also met this need. Additionally, the
                                conference was the perfect size for me…. Overall, I was very satisfied."

I am not a professional procurement person and portions of the procurement area have recently fallen under my scope of responsibility. I wanted a conference that was strategic enough to help me connect the dots and better understand the logistics and procurement challenges that a high growth organization is likely to face…the conference met this need. I also wanted a conference that gave some tactical or “how to” best practices that I could potentially begin to execute upon the return to my office…the conference also met this need. Additionally, the conference was the perfect size for me…. Overall, I was very satisfied." – Rick Sorrells, EVP of Administration, Towne Park 8 Register Today!
