Negotiation Intelligence: Unlocking Procurement ROI

Supply chain and procurement leaders around the world are facing greater demand with less resources. As global supply chains have become more globally recognised as a backbone of business resilience, leaders are relying on technology to meet demand without sacrificing quality.
The emergence of AI in these roles cannot be ignored, but gaps still remain when it comes to implementing the asset and gaining measurable results. To truly unlock value, business leaders need to understand where AI can help and how it can be applied in order to do so.
At Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE: The US Summit, a focused workshop with Infinity Loop will explore how to leverage AI and contracts in order to gain cost savings and productivity.
Negotiation Intelligence: Turning Contracts, Negotiations, and AI into a Strategic Advantage
- Date: 21 April 2026
- Time: 12:00pm ET
- Location: Room 3
This workshop is designed for supply chain and procurement leaders who want to learn how to utilise AI in negotiations to deliver strong and measurable results.
The session will explore how true value in contracts, negotiations and sourcing can be unlocked, with insights into why many AI initiatives fail. Modern supply chains need to balance efficiency, relationship management and cost savings β meaning that technology is vital in today's ever-changing world.
Participants will learn how to:
- Turn AI into negotiation intelligence
- Drive real, repeatable cost savings across vendor relationships
Developing resilience
As supply chains become increasingly complex, driven by regulatory changes and ongoing trade disputes, business leaders need to understand how to unlock the best value in their relationships. Today's climate emphases the need for operational resilience, but the demand for cost savings still rears its head.
In order to balance both, business leaders are turning towards AI to ensure they gain full transparency into their supply chains and can develop the most valuable β but cost-effective β supplier relationship. This, in turn, is helping them develop operational resilience and strategic advantages during volatility.
Meet the leaders
Sponsored by Infinity Loop, this workshop will be lead by Nithin Mummaneni (Founder & CEO) and Kevin Liang (CTO).
Infinity Loop is an AI analysis platform, developed by former consultants who understood the barriers when dealing with negotiations. The platform was built to give leaders negotiation firepower, without middlemen or extreme costs. It aims to be smarter, faster and more ruthless against negotiation inefficiencies.
During the workshop, Nithin and Kevin will share how AI can help take contracts and negotiations to the next level.
Who should attend this workshop?
This workshop is relevant for senior leaders, primarily CPOs and VPs of Procurement or Supply Chain, responsible for sourcing strategy, procurement operations and digital transformation.
It can be particularly valuable for organisations within high-complexity sectors, including technology, financial services, healthcare, manufacturing and retail, that are seeking to implement cost savings and operate more efficiently.
Attend this session to understand how AI can move procurement beyond simple transactions and turn it into a sustainable strategic advantage for supply chain operations.
