As mentioned in an earlier blog I shall be taking part in Procurex North at Manchester Central on Thursday 26th February 2015. For those who don't recognise the location, it is the conference centre formerly known as GMex, where I once saw Prince - back when he was "the artist formally known as Prince". Parking underneath GMex, sorry Manchester Central, tram stop Deansgate-Castlefield, (formerly known as GMex) or St. Peter's Square (still called that as far as I know)
I shall be running the Supplier Training Zone (details here) looking at the new EU procurement regulations which are coming in (literally) any day now, sustainability and selection criteria.
There will also be a Buyer's training zone, an E-enablement zone (where I hope to be able to sneak in to hear the latest about procurement cards), and keynote speeches from Sir Howard Bernstein (Chief Exec of Manchester City Council, and one of the architects of the great development of Manchester over the past 20 years), Jim Hemmington (head of procurement at the BBC - don't forget to ask questions about Salford), Sally Collier (Chief Exec of the Crown Commercial Service) and several other speakers.
Plus the usual array of exhibition stands.
Always a great event - hope to see you there.
