4:15 PM Tired Of Flying Blind: How To Gain Control Over Event Sourcing

If your CEO asked you to prove that every dollar spent on meetings & events is optimized, what would you say? Most companies can’t answer that question—relying on fragmented tools and processes, with little visibility and frequent missed savings. With economic uncertainty and growing pressure to optimize budgets, now is the time for procurement leaders to anticipate change and rethink their sourcing practices to maximize every dollar. Join leaders from DoorDash and Planned for a practical discussion on how data-driven sourcing models are reshaping Meetings & Events—and why organizations that modernize their approach today will be best positioned for the future. 

 

Key takeaways 

  • Understand why fragmented sourcing and missing data lead to wasted spend. 
  • Discover how to frame policies to encourage adoption at scale from occasional planners. 
  • Learn how live and historical data can be utilized to help non-expert planners negotiate better terms and reduce risk.
