Over time, the focus has shifted from a relationship that is generally transactional to one based on collaborative and strategic initiatives that bring increased value among all stakeholders. The rate of change and impact of the past two years has accelerated the need for innovation. Our panel of GPO executives will discuss current and future supplier facing challenges, and the pioneering ways that those challenges are being addressed.
