Host James Meads is joined by two guests, this week. Nick Vekroost is the CEO of procurement tech company Canopy. Anna Williams is head of procurement at the office design and build organisation Unispace, where Canopy has been successfully implemented. This is a rare opportunity to speak to a procurement tech provider and one of that provider's clients at the same time. We'll talk about their implementation journey, share their successes and hopefully give you some ammo for making a business case to your CFO or CEO.
