Connecting Procurement Communities

NIGP Annual Forum and Products Exposition

The Annual Forum from NIGP is the largest North American educational conference designed exclusively for individuals in public procurement.

Connect. Collaborate. Inspire.

At Forum like-minded public procurement professionals from across the country and Canada come together for best-of-class training and to share experiences, challenges, solutions, and best practices with a common goal - to be the best public servant they can be. They are bound by their commitment and passion for public procurement and look forward for this once-a-year opportunity to catch up with colleagues and/or make new meaningful connections.

NIGP Forum 2021 offered a wholly new way for members to connect, engage, honor, and celebrate our collective accomplishments. We kicked-off Forum with an all-virtual experience in August and continued in September with a socially distanced in-person gathering in sunny Anaheim for our first-ever Leadership Summit.

Products Exposition

One of the primary benefits of attending Forum is the opportunity to meet suppliers, both virtually or in-person, from all over the United States and Canada that sell products in all areas of public procurement. Forum attendees can discover the latest products and services available to government agencies from a vast array of suppliers through our products exposition.

If you are a supplier that sells supplies to government agencies, you don't want to miss the opportunity to be a Forum exhibitor.
