🗓️ September 14 - 16, 2026
The pressure on procurement leaders has never been higher. AI is reshaping the function from a back-office cost center into a strategic value driver — but the leaders furthest ahead already know the hard truth underneath the hype: AI is only as good as the supplier data it runs on. That's exactly the conversation the inaugural Gartner Procurement Conference is built around, and it's exactly why Graphite Connect will be there.
We'll be at the Gartner Procurement Conference 2026, September 15-16 at the Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center in San Diego. Whether you're wrestling with unreliable supplier data, slow onboarding, or risk assessments that never stay current, our team will show you how Graphite eliminates those problems at the root — not with a workaround, but with a fundamentally different approach.
Graphite's patented supplier network gives procurement teams a shared foundation of validated, continuously updated supplier-submitted information and source documents before they turn into payment delays or compliance gaps. Automated risk assessments score every supplier profile against your thresholds and trigger remediation workflows when something needs attention — so your team isn't chasing paperwork, they're making decisions. The result: supplier onboarding that moves up to 85% faster, across more than 176 countries, without the manual overhead that has always made global procurement so hard to scale.
Here's your reason to stop by. Bring your supplier data challenges and benchmark your team against the 2026 Supplier Data Benchmark Report — a candid look at where procurement organizations actually stand on supplier data trust, completeness, and readiness for AI. You'll leave knowing exactly how you stack up against your peers.
And on Tuesday evening, join us at the Graphite booth for a personalized trading card activation — a one-of-a-kind keepsake built just for you. Come for the trading card, stay for the conversation about what clean, connected supplier data could do for your team.
