The state of AI in spend: Builders, bystanders, and the widening divide

In just a year, AI has reshaped how procurement and finance teams work. But not every company is adapting at the same pace. 

In this session, we'll unpack key findings from Zip's second annual State of AI in Spend report, the industry's most comprehensive survey of over 1,000 global leaders across procurement, finance, IT, and operations. The data reveals two very different futures taking shape: the organizations going deep on AI and seeing real returns, and the ones still standing at the foot of the bridge, still mapping their route across. 

We'll explore what separates the builders from the bystanders, and what procurement's next chapter looks like in an agentic, orchestrated future.
