Episode 53 - Procurex 2026 LIVE edition

"Procurex 2026 LIVE edition" Welcome to this very special LIVE edition of the podcast where Chris and Fleur take 'A Procurement Podcast' to the stage as part of Procurement England 2026 and the People, Purpose & Planet Zone. They are joined by three amazing guests, who are all well known to the podcast, to discuss important topics such as how we can engage the younger generation in procurement, the importance of social value and how circular economy can be considered. This was a very exciting opportunity for both Chris and Fleur, who have attended many Procurex events previously when they both worked directly within the public sector, so getting to take their podcast live on stage really was a memorable event.
