First up, PASA and Portt have joined forces to present an exclusive webinar which will reveal the latest findings from Portt’s ANZ procurement research PLUS key insights that didn’t make it into the report.

Attendees will gain an invaluable overview of the latest research to come out of the ANZ region, revealing the five key barriers companies face on the road to becoming strategic powerhouses, while hearing from the people who spear-headed the project.

The webinar will focus on two main topics:

• Unpacking the five barriers: a deep dive into the five key barriers that hinder procurement functions from reaching their full potential
