ABOUT YVAN DAVOUST
I\'m a global procurement leader with a deep domain expertise across High-Tech, Consumer Electronics, Personal Care, and Healthcare, and a genuine passion for innovation. Over the course of my career, I\'ve acted as an intrapreneur: developing and implementing multiple digital solutions for procurement that went on to set benchmarks in supplier innovation. I believe procurement\'s true potential is still largely untapped — and that unlocking it requires rethinking how we collaborate across the supply ecosystem, not just optimizing what already exists. My conviction is that advanced technology — from AI to integrated platforms — can elevate procurement from a cost-management function to a genuine value multiplier, provided it\'s paired with the right strategic mindset and cross-functional relationships. Suppliers aren\'t just counterparts; they\'re innovation partners. I enjoy connecting with people who share this appetite for transformation: whether you\'re rethinking sourcing models, building procurement tech, exploring new forms of supplier co-creation, or simply curious about where the function is headed with the AI revolution. Let\'s exchange ideas.
