2025 Global Public Procurement Forum

We’ll be joining the the first OECD Global Public Procurement Forum. The event aims at reviewing cutting edge public procurement practices across the world to ensure that public procurement is best used to achieve desired economic and social outcomes, while delivering substantial savings. 

Join us for the following session on 2 July, at 14:15 hours.

Building public trust by leveraging the power of public procurement
Recent findings from the 2023 OECD Trust Survey reveal growing scepticism among citizens regarding governments’ capacity to manage complex policy challenges. Concerns about integrity and fairness in public decision-making further erode trust, with a significant portion of citizens doubting the ethical conduct of public officials. Against this backdrop, robust, integrity-driven public procurement systems are essential not only for ensuring transparent and effective operations but also for generating lasting societal value. This session will explore how sound public procurement practices can serve as a cornerstone for rebuilding trust in democratic institutions.

We will also host a side-event on identifying best practices to purchase AI. Please reach out if you’d like to know more.
