organisations looking to deliver better outcomes and greater value. This practical workshop explores what the procurement of innovation is, the different forms it can take, and why it is becoming increasingly important in countries around the world. Delegates will learn how to identify opportunities for innovation, describe needs and requirements effectively, understand the methods and procedures available today (and those emerging for the future), and explore how to develop a culture of innovation within public procurement. They will leave with practical knowledge and tools they can apply immediately within their own organisations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div> \t\t\t\t<\/div> \t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
