If previous events are to go by, Emptoris' Empower Europe 2010 will once again be the main event this year for professionals wishing to learn 'the new game plan' required for procurement to continue to pull their company forward in this new economy. We have a passion for innovation and our customers share our pioneering spirit. Moreover, we bring industry visionaries from around the globe to speak, host debates, and engage with our user community. Ultimately, our users attend Empower Europe to learn valuable new business principles, build contacts within their peer networks, foster friendships, and invigorate themselves and their supply management programs for the year, and decade, ahead.
Does this sound like the environment for you? We welcome a select number of non-customers to attend our event – those who share our commitment to excellence and have a vested interest in their enterprise's growth and profitability. We attract serious people with serious business issues and we pride ourselves in making them successful. While doing so, we aim to create an open and relaxed environment so as to foster long-lasting friendships, peer benchmarking opportunities, and mentoring relationships – aspects that are at the heart of the success of previous Empower Europe events.
If you are interested in attending as a non-customer guest, please work with your Emptoris representative directly or email Elisa Saunders at esaunders@emptoris.com. We will promptly reply to your enquiry and questions.
If you are an analyst, media contact, or blogger and would like to attend, please contact our PR contact, Dan Cahill, at dcahill@emptoris.com or +1 321- 939-0033.
We look forward to seeing you in April!
