This isn't about replacing your team - it's about what your team becomes when AI agents handle the rest. Why can we talk about this? Because we built the world's first multi-agent system for procurement, already live at 150+ global enterprises: creating PRs, turning them into POs, sourcing vendors, and negotiating terms - all simultaneously. Used by 1 Mio.+ daily users, internationally awarded, and backed by a16z, the world's leading AI investor.

Key takeaways:

• What technology leaders need from procurement to turn AI agents into measurable value
• Human vs. machine: today's agent capabilities, tomorrow's roadmap, and the new operating model between agents and category managers
• Signal vs. hype: hard-won lessons from global deployments at 150+ enterprises, live with 1M+ daily users
