The Graphite Grand Prix is not a trade show. It is a series of closed-door, execution-focused strategy sessions designed for senior procurement leaders. We are leaving high-level theory behind to focus on the operational realities of Procurement in 2026: volatility, automation, and speed.
Network with fellow procurement leaders over coffee before diving into the day.
Set the stage for meaningful collaboration. Share your biggest CoE challenges and hear what’s keeping your peers up at night. No corporate facades – just honest dialogue about what needs fixing.
A mix of trend data, expert perspectives, and real-world case studies tailored to the day’s focus area.
Grab a plate and hear directly from a CPO on what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next.
Bring it all together – work with your table to translate today’s conversations into a concrete action plan.
Forget hypothetical case studies – Brain Trust sessions tackle real challenges brought by participants. Each attendee identifies their most pressing priority in advance, we match you with peers who bring complementary experience. You’ll leave with peer-validated solutions to problems you’re actually facing.
