YPP Conference on Co-creation

“Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success” Henry Ford inspiring us to Co-create

After three successful conferences, Young Purchasing Professionals (YPP) is proud to announce the topic of this year’s 4 th conference : Co-creation

Increasingly, we as procurement professionals are faced with the job to create value for our business. In today’s environment it is clear that we will not bring sustainable value just by bargain hunting and negotiating prices with our suppliers. One way of looking further, even further than creating value, is Co-creation , a process in which value is created not only for the buyer, but for all parties involved. The success stories of Co-creation speak for themselves, Philips and Douwe Egberts, Heineken and Krups. These companies created a new product by combining their knowledge and expertise, they added value by Co-creating. It sounds great, but how do we achieve Co-creation? What are the driving/key factors? What is needed to facilitate Co-creation and what should we keep in mind when trying to set this up?

Join us on the 3rd of October to learn more about Co-creation, get inspired by professionals on the topic of Co-creation. Amongst others CPO Tim Tolhurst (DSM), Johan Keerberg (FC) and Daniela Weitmann (NIKE)and see what Co-creation can bring to you in your work ( or private) environment!

This conference is set up for young purchasing professionals upto the age of 35. Registration fee is only 20€ , for more information and registration visit our site
