Procurement and financial decision-makers and buyers from almost every higher education institution in South Africa, Namibia and Botswana, together with their supplier partners will attend COLLABORATE, the 2019 PURCO SA Annual Conference and Exhibition in October.
Held under the auspices of the Purchasing Consortium Southern Africa, the high-engagement conference, exhibition and associated evening functions enables you to cost-effectively improve your knowledge, skills and networking relationships in one collaborative three-day get-together.
We urge you to join us and not miss out.
COLLABORATE provides an unparalleled opportunity to connect with colleagues throughout South Africa, Botswana and Namibia.
Our 2019 event is specifically designed to deliver value to each of our delegates, providing maximimum collaboration with their colleagues as well as with the suppliers who attend the event.
In addition to the integrated exhibition, we are developing a compelling programme of keynote addresses, workshops, teambuilding and social activities for our higher education colleagues and exhibitors.
The event provides an irreplaceable opportunity to build and grow profitable relationships within our community, while helping our higher education members to identify and engage with the best suppliers for each of the commodities and services managed by PURCO SA.
