Ariba LIVE Headed for Europe


Following a successful run in Las Vegas, Ariba LIVE is headed for Munich. On June 8, executives from many of Europe's leading companies will gather for the premier business commerce event hosted by Ariba, an SAP company, where they will learn to harness the power of digital networks to drive innovation and advantage across their operations.

"The world today is a network - a digital network. And to thrive in it, companies need to be connected," said Alex Atzberger, president, Ariba. "Networks are the onramp to innovation and advantage. And Ariba LIVE is a unique forum designed to help businesses get on the right road and move quickly toward success."

Attended by the best and brightest in procurement, finance, sales and marketing and IT, the event will feature keynotes from executives and thought leaders who will share their insights on how digital networks are transforming business and helping companies to deliver results, including:

  • Ian Fuller - General Manager, Business Transformation, and Shiraz Sarang, Chief Procurement Officer, Nedbank
  • Henrik Larsen - Sourcing and Indirect Vice President, Group Procurement, A.P. Moller Maersk Group

Practitioners from leading European organizations will also share their knowledge and best practices during interactive breakout sessions on a broad range of topics related to buying, selling and managing cash, including:

  • Groupe Auchan SA
  • Bayer Business Services
  • Avery Dennison
  • IBM (News - Alert)
  • Becton Dickinson
  • Lyreco Deutschland GmbH
  • HH Global
  • Sonepar Belguim



And of course, there will be ample opportunities for peer-to-peer networking, where attendees can share practical, actionable information that will help them more effectively manage today's virtual enterprise and deliver the future of commerce. Because, as Atzberger notes, "it's not only what you know, but who you know - and who knows you - that really matters and ultimately makes a difference."
