We’re not in an era of change. We’re in a change of era — and Stockholm is at the center of it.

Trade shifts. Tariff swings. Geopolitical uncertainty. Regulatory pressures.

Procurement and finance leaders across Sweden and the Nordics now operate in constant volatility — and the need for intelligence, resilience, and speed has never been greater.

Organizations require more than automation. They need AI that thinks, learns, acts, and adapts. That’s what agentic AI delivers.

At GEP INNOVATE On Tour 2026 – Stockholm, you’ll learn how to navigate this new era with clarity. Hear from senior procurement leaders as they share forward-looking strategies, breakthrough innovations, and real applications of agentic AI transforming procurement across the region.
