Procurement is entering a new operating era. AI is no longer a future trend or isolated experiment. It is fundamentally reshaping how organizations buy, collaborate, make decisions, and operate at scale. That’s why the theme of DPW New York 2026 is: RECODE
Procurement is entering a new operating era. AI is no longer a future trend or isolated experiment. It is fundamentally reshaping how organizations buy, collaborate, make decisions, and operate at scale. That’s why the theme of DPW 2026 is: RECODE
RECODE explores what procurement and supply chain become when humans and intelligent systems work together across workflows, decision-making, supplier collaboration, and enterprise operations.
The next generation of procurement will not be built by simply layering AI onto existing processes.
It requires rethinking:
- How work gets done
- How decisions are made
- How organizations collaborate
- How teams operate alongside intelligent systems
- How enterprises move from fragmented tools to connected workflows
At DPW New York (June 3–4) & DPW Amsterdam (September 30–October 1) 2026, leaders from the world’s largest enterprises, fastest-growing startups, and most innovative technology companies will come together to explore this shift in real time.
Across two days, attendees will dive into topics including:
- Agentic workflows
- Autonomous operations
- AI-native procurement teams
- Enterprise orchestration
- Decision intelligence
- Supplier collaboration in the AI era
- The future operating model of procurement
RECODE is not about incremental improvement.
It’s about redesigning procurement and supply chain for a world where intelligent systems become embedded into how enterprises operate every day.
DPW brings together the builders, operators, and innovators shaping that future.
