BY INVITATION
The SCPMI Table Riyadh
Wednesday 7 October 2026 · 6:00 PMFour Seasons Hotel Riyadh at Kingdom Centre
An evening of conversation and dinner with the people shaping supply chains across the Kingdom, hosted by Douglas Kent, Chief Executive Officer of SCPMI.
A STRONGER SUPPLY CHAIN. A BRIGHTER TOMORROW.
ABOUT THE EVENING
A seat at the table.
For years, supply chain and procurement leaders have asked for a seat at the table. This evening, we are setting one.
The Kingdom is building supply chains at a speed and scale few places in the world have ever attempted. New industries, new cities, new ports and new partnerships, all at once. The people leading that work carry some of the hardest problems in the region, and they rarely get the chance to talk them through with each other.
The SCPMI Table brings a small group of those leaders together for one evening. A short welcome from our host, then an open, unhurried conversation about what the region's supply chains need next and the talent it will take to get there, followed by dinner.
No stage. No slides. Just the right people around the table.
WHY JOIN US
The right people
A small, invited group of senior supply chain and procurement leaders from across the Kingdom.
A real conversation
No presentations and no panels. An open discussion, where what is said in the room stays in the room.
The start of something
The first SCPMI Table in Riyadh, and the beginning of a community built By Professionals, For Professionals.
YOUR HOST
Douglas Kent
Chief Executive Officer, Supply Chain and Procurement Management Institute
Douglas has spent more than three decades working alongside supply chain and procurement professionals in some sixty countries, across sectors from aerospace and defense to pharmaceuticals, energy and consumer goods.
