Graphite Is a Proud Sponsor of Tomorrow's Procurement Leader 2026

‍

📍Austin, TX

🗓️ September 14-16, 2026

‍

Nearly half of procurement leaders don't fully trust their own supplier data. That's a hard place to lead from — and it's exactly the gap Graphite Connect is bringing to the conversation at Tomorrow's Procurement Leader 2026.

‍

We're proud to sponsor this years event, running September 14-16 at Hotel Van Zandt in Austin. It's two day's built for CPOs, their leadership teams, and the rising leaders shaping where the function goes next — with tracks on leading transformation, structuring the function for an AI-enabled era, and developing the next generation of talent.

‍

This year's theme is turning insights into action. But insight is only as good as the data underneath it, and AI is only as good as what you feed it. When leaders can't trust their supplier records, every decision downstream carries a question mark — and every AI initiative built on that data inherits the same doubt.

‍

That's the problem Graphite was built to solve. Our patented supplier network gives procurement teams a shared, continuously updated foundation of validated supplier data. Our AI-driven validations catch discrepancies between what a supplier submits and what their source documents say — before they turn into payment delays or compliance gaps. Automated risk assessments score every profile against your thresholds and trigger remediation when something needs attention, so your team spends its time deciding, not chasing paperwork.

‍

The result is supplier onboarding up to 85% faster — one to three days for suppliers already on the network — across more than 176 countries, without the manual overhead that has always made global procurement hard to scale.

‍

If you'll be in Austin, let's talk. We'd rather spend the time understanding where your data is holding your team back than pitching you across a table. Book a time with us here.
