10:30am : Arrival & Coffee

11:00am : Structured Introductions

A chance to meet your fellow attendees, share your role and set the context for the discussion ahead.

11:30am : Streamlining approvals, compliance checks and onboarding validations

Onboarding a new supplier sets the tone for everything that follows. Share experiences of reducing friction without compromising control, from approval workflows to compliance checks and supplier validations, and hear how your peers are tackling the same challenges.

12:00pm: Managing risk (including cyber, ESG, geopolitics and more) at scale 


Supplier risk comes in many forms and no two organisations manage it the same way. Share how other teams are monitoring and responding to risk across cyber, financial, ESG and geopolitical dimensions, and hear what’s working for others at scale.

12:45pm: Light Lunch

13:30pm: Preventing fraud and modernising payment controls 


Fraud takes many forms and the methods used to commit it are becoming harder to detect. Hear the challenges other teams are facing and discuss what effective controls look like in practice, without slowing down legitimate transactions.

14:15pm: Coffee Break


14:30pm: Identifying overpayments (often caused by process errors elsewhere in the business)


Overpayments are rarely just an AP problem. Our recent 2026 Overpayment Report, Europe examines how errors upstream can surface as financial leakage in AP, and how organisations are using recovery audits and smarter controls to find and prevent them.

15:30pm: Closing Discussion & Key Takeaways 


A facilitated wrap-up to capture the themes and ideas that emerged across the day. Leave with a clear view of where your peers are focusing their efforts and what you might take back to your own organisation.
