Against the backdrop of Malaysia’s evolving industrial landscape, the role of the CPO has transformed into a critical C-suite strategic partner. As global tech giants pour investment into local infrastructure, procurement functions must balance rapid scaling with the necessity of building sustainable, ethical, and green supply chains that align with both global standards and national ESG goals.
Join us at the 9th Annual CPO Summit & Awards Kuala Lumpur 2026, where we focus on “Procurement 2026: Driving Innovation through Intelligence and Integrity.” This year’s edition highlights how CPOs are leveraging "Agentic AI" and data analytics to automate transactional tasks and focus on transformational value creation. Sessions will explore predictive risk management, AI-guided negotiations, and the "New Talent Equation" in procurement. Gain insights from Malaysia’s top leaders through real-world discussions that address the future of supply chain leadership in a tech-enabled, responsible era.
