We promote and leverage the power of procurement and engage in some incredible collaborations with the following organizations to help empower our community, unleash innovation, and transform challenges into opportunities:
The Sustainable Procurement Pledge (SPP) engaged in a strategic collaboration with Economist Impact as part of its Year of Procurement and the celebration of the SPP’s “5 Years of Impact” in 2024. By working with Economist Impact, SPP aimed at fostering partnerships that transcend traditional boundaries and opening doors for procurement professionals to access a global network of allies working towards shared sustainability objectives.
As a partner in the Buy Social Europe B2B project, SPP is helped to boost social procurement in the EU in 2023-24. Driven by the SPP Supplier Diversity Chapter, this engagement connected the SPP community to over 23 organizations from 17 countries that work collaboratively to accelerate European and local B2B social procurement markets. The concept of social procurement – buying from social enterprises that put people and the planet first – has emerged as a powerful strategy for sustainability. The project aimed to substantially increase awareness, capacity building and match making opportunities for both sides of the supply and demand spectrum of social and mainstream enterprises. The Buy Social Europe B2B consortium was led by Euclid Network – the European Social Enterprise Network.
The Procure Innovation Dialogues, co-hosted by the Sustainable Procurement Pledge and the First Movers Coalition of the World Economic Forum, was held on 20 September 2024 and brought together a community of influential Chief Procurement Officers (CPOs) and their C-suite partners. The 2024 Dialogues focused on identifying concrete approaches to sustainability improvements and fostering strong partnerships between CPOs and their senior supply chain partners.

SPP continues to support this leadership event and actively engages in the Procure Innovation Dialogues 2025.
In 2025, SPP has joined forces with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) — a CEO-led network of over 250 leading businesses working together to accelerate the transition to a sustainable world. Through the partnership, we will co-host events, share content with our communities, and drive decarbonization solutions. A key focus is the collaboration with WBCSD’s The Climate Drive Action Library, a global action library of proven climate strategies. SPP contributes expertise and real-world case studies from its Guide, collaborates on procurement-specific solutions, and helps expand The Climate Drive’s reach, making practical climate action more accessible to procurement professionals worldwide.
Let’s #collaborate2accelerate!
