  1. Expand Your Global Network

The value of networking with your global peers shouldn’t be underestimated. There’s someone out there who knows the answer to your most pressing procurement questions. And they are waiting to share their experience and knowledge with the community.

They’ve walked in your shoes, so why not tap into their experience? The Big Ideas Summit is as much about championing the use of social media as it is the big issues.

If you’re new to our community and haven’t yet got involved, this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

We’ll be on the lookout for the digital delegates with the biggest and best ideas. And by leveraging our network of thought-leaders, we can work together to develop these ideas, introduce influential contacts to your network, and help make them a reality.

  1. Tell Us Your Big Idea

As well as hearing our influencers’ Big Ideas, by registering you’ll be able to submit your own. We believe everyone has a unique vantage point in the industries, communities and businesses they work in. So here is an opportunity to get your Big Idea across, and boost your own personal brand.

Procurious wants you to share your ideas with our community by creating a 60 second video. It’s super easy to do this on your computer, laptop or phone – whatever works for you! We’ve provided some more detailed advice here on how to submit your Big Idea.

  1. Access Exclusive Content from the Day

Expand your knowledge, stay informed, and be inspired through swathes of exclusive content only available to Procurious members.

On the day we’ll be updating the Group Page with photos from the event, highlights from our sessions, and updates on the discussions. In the days following you’ll be able to watch full videos from our think-tanks, as well as hear all of our influencers’ Big Ideas, digest articles and interviews from those who were in attendance.
