Experts Gather in Lagos For Digital Procurement Summit

Technology and procurement experts, alongside policymakers and business leaders, are set to converge in Lagos for a summit focused on the future of digital procurement across Africa.

The event will bring together stakeholders from both the public and private sectors to explore how digital tools and systems can improve procurement processes, reduce inefficiencies, and strengthen transparency in large organisations.

Discussions at the summit are expected to centre on how enterprises can transition from traditional procurement methods to more technology-driven systems that offer better oversight, cost control, and accountability.

Organisers say the shift towards digital procurement is becoming increasingly important as organisations face growing pressure to improve operational efficiency and eliminate fraud risks within supply chains.

The summit will also highlight the role of innovation in reshaping procurement from a routine administrative function into a strategic business priority that directly impacts performance and governance.

Experts are expected to share insights on how digital transformation can support both public institutions and private companies in building more resilient and transparent procurement systems.
