CPO & SUPPLY CHAIN 
SUSTAINABILITY NETWORK

​Background
Supply chains and purchasing are critical aspects of the business model, which need to see sustainability integrated in a strategic and holistic manner. Companies face complex sustainability challenges in their global supply chains, that cover a wide range of Sustainable Development Goals, from GHG emissions and climate targets to human rights violations  and corruption.  Additionally, many stakeholders are demanding that companies have greater transparency in their supply chains and a sustainability agenda that reaches far beyond tier one.

​Implications for supply chain and purchasing professionals
The increased sustainability and ESG focus prompts supply chain and purchasing professionals to gain more knowledge on  sustainability risks and opportunities amongst their suppliers, and the right tools to manage these.  When it comes to procurement, focusing on price or service levels is no longer enough; leading Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) and Supply Chain Executives must build strategic sustainability into their procurement function.

These implications are explored in the Chief Purchasing Officer (CPO) and Supply Chain Sustainability Network.
​What the CPO & Supply Chain Sustainability Network offers
The CPO-network builds on the idea that managers and decision makers in the field of supply chain management and purchasing  are key resources in the sustainable business agenda. 
  • Practical knowledge and useful tools for how to better overcome key challenges, integrate sustainability into the daily work and responsibilities of supply chain and purchasing professionals.
  • Insight into relevant sustainability trends, new research and inspiring examples from leading experts and companies in the field.
  • Cross learning and peer discussions of solutions, best practices and how to strengthen your company’s strategic work with sustainability.​
