Conference Programme & Speaking Opportunities

Insightful presentations and heartfelt appreciation for organisations enhancing our local suppliers. I repledge to aggressively continue to grow and enhance our local market.

Incredible! This is my first-time experience attending this event. I am highly impressed with the amount of knowledge learning from the amazing industry leaders and the work and passion into SMMEs.

Excited to have been part of this Indaba. Indeed, procurement is universal. Issues raised through discussions and presentations are the same issues we experience in Botswana. I learnt a lot and I cannot wait to share what I learnt with other professionals at home.

Thanks to Smart Procurement for an amazing two days filled with messages, and Stephan was the perfect close.

Thank you for an excellent conference! Smart Procurement has once again outdone itself with hosting this online conference.
