More than 60 companies competed across three categories with the Innovative Provider category rewarding the digital solutions which are improving the performance of procurement teams at leading global organizations.

“The great energy, the emotion and, of course, the innovation. This is what we can remember from this 15th edition from the Trophées des Achats, as we returned in front of 900 procurement professionals,” said Guillaume Trécan, Editor-in-Chief, Republik. “Congratulations to the winning companies who had the opportunity to demonstrate their innovative capabilities on the stage of the historic Mogador Theatre.”
