WPC 2024: Glide paths For sustainable growth
Now in its 20th year, the World Procurement Congress has welcomed over 1100 CPOs to the stage and over 12,000 delegates through the door.
This remains the must attend event, providing inspiration through content, networking and social interaction for business leaders who have a strong desire to help progress the function, develop future leaders and create sustainable growth for all.
Your host:
Natasha Kaplinsky OBE
After co-hosting BBC Breakfast, Natasha grabbed the headlines with her win on the first series of Strictly Come Dancing. She then moved to the main evening news bulletins before a high profile transfer to head up the Channel 5 News team. Having originally worked as a researcher for Labour party leaders John Smith and Neil Kinnock, before moving into television, Natasha has married her experience in politics with grilling ministers across several formats. Having since presented all of BBC One’s main news bulletins, as well as broadcasts for Channel 5 and ITV, Natasha has also co-hosted Children in Need, The Proms and New Year Live for the BBC and appeared on Have I Got News For You. With a keen interest in the future of British film and television, in 2022, she became the latest president of the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC).
