As previously announced, on 15 December, I will have the chance to discuss my ongoing research on procurement digitalisation with a stellar panel: Eliza Niewiadomska (EBRD), Jessica Tillipman (GW Law), and Sope Williams (Stellenbosch).
The webinar will provide an opportunity to take a hard look at the promise of tech fixes for procurement problems, focusing on key issues such as:
The ‘true’ potential of digital technologies in procurement.
The challenges arising from putting key enablers in place, such as an adequate big data architecture and access to digital skills in short supply.
The challenges arising from current regulatory frameworks and constraints not applicable to the private sector.
New challenges posed by data governance and cybersecurity risks.
The webinar will be held on December 15, 2022 at 9:00 am EST / 2:00 pm GMT / 3:00 pm CET-SAST. Full details and registration at: https://blogs.gwu.edu/law-govpro/tech-fixes-for-procurement-problems/.
