ACICAE – Basque Country Automotive Cluster invites you to participate in the conference “Procurement Day Euskadi”, organized by AERCE, a non-profit professional association that represents professionals and departments of Purchasing, Contracting and Procurement in Spain, both in the private sector and Public Administration.
The meeting will address the new paradigms of procurement management and other challenges facing the profession in an increasingly complex global context. The possible economic impact of the results of the U.S. presidential elections and the repercussions they could have for companies in the Basque Country will also be analyzed.
