About
AI is moving fast – but in procurement, speed without trust is a liability.

In this session, we explore what it actually takes to make AI-powered market and supplier intelligence reliable enough to act on. Not just faster outputs, but intelligence you can stake a decision on – what practitioners are calling "decision-grade."

Join Jennifer Sieber (Gilead Sciences), Prerna Dhawan (Beroe), and Niko Nurmi (Procurement Leaders) for a candid conversation on where AI genuinely delivers in category and supplier intelligence today, where it still falls short, and how leading teams are closing the gap.

Beroe powers the decisions that drive procurement, from intelligence to execution. Building on 20 years of deep category experience, the company provides decision-grade intelligence that combines the benefits of cutting-edge AI with ‘human-in-the-loop’ expertise, trusted by the world’s largest enterprises.

Beroe’s intelligence is delivered wherever decisions are made, through its portfolio of data products, AI agents, and workflows, enabling procurement teams to make strategic, defendable decisions for sourcing, supplier management and risk mitigation – at speed.

Join this 45-minute practitioner-led session and walk away with:
-A clear definition of "decision-grade" intelligence – and the practical bar your team should be setting for any AI-generated insight before acting on it
-An honest map of where AI genuinely delivers in category and supplier intelligence today – and where human expertise still has to carry the weight
-A framework for balancing LLMs, structured data, and expert validation without creating bottlenecks in your procurement workflow
