In the UAE, where the "Projects of the 50" drive a relentless pace of development, procurement is the primary engine of the national vision. CPOs are currently navigating a massive shift toward regionally-aligned sourcing strategies, ensuring that real-time visibility and agile operations safeguard the nation’s ambitious infrastructure, energy, and digital transformation projects.
Join us at the 5th Annual CPO Summit & Awards UAE 2026, where we focus on “The Value Orchestrator: Scaling Resilience and Sustainability in the Middle East.” This year’s edition highlights how procurement leaders are moving beyond traditional cost-cutting toward long-term value creation through technological innovation. Sessions will explore the adoption of blockchain-based traceability, AI-powered spend analysis, and the integration of the "S" in ESG within the regional supply chain. Gain insights from the UAE’s most influential CPOs through discussions that address the future of procurement in a tech-enabled, future-proof era.

Dubai is a city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates known for luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene. Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. At its foot lies Dubai Fountain, with jets and lights choreographed to music. On artificial islands just offshore is Atlantis, The Palm, a resort with water and marine-animal parks.
