Overview

Corporate United, the nation’s largest group purchasing organization, is pleased to announce the SYNERGY 2008 conference to be held April 15 to 17 at the InterContinental Harbor Court in Baltimore, MD, which overlooks Baltimore’s famous Inner Harbor. Our seventh annual SYNERGY event, an elite supply chain conference, promises to bring together foremost supply chain and spend management professionals to discuss compelling and relevant procurement issues.

Keeping in line with our tradition of excellence, the seventh annual SYNERGY conference will provide the opportunity to learn from some of today’s leading and most innovative procurement executives. The conference includes breakout sessions to learn how your strategic sourcing peers tackle some of the most challenging procurement issues in the business. Attendees will interact with and listen to supply chain authorities from such companies as Progressive Insurance and Dresser Rand.

Flanking the breakout sessions are the two keynote addresses. This year, Corporate United has the distinction of announcing former congressman Michael Oxley as our closing keynote speaker. Do not miss this chance to hear the co-sponsor of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 – declared “the most far-reaching reforms of American business practices since the time of Franklin Delano Roosevelt” by President Bush – speak the final words of SYNERGY 2008.
