#7 - Laura Colli, Chief Procurement Officer Prysmian

Ever managed Procurement for a 30,000-employee company?

We haven’t—but Laura Colli, Chief Procurement Officer at Prysmian, has!

Here’s her vision:

1️⃣ Partner, Partner, Partner. SUPPLIERS = PARTNERS. One-off negotiations are a thing of the past—without partners, resilience (and growth) simply doesn’t exist.

2️⃣ Italian vs. International Procurement. It’s true—we’re less innovative and take fewer risks than our American friends. But when it comes to technical expertise, we set the standard.

3️⃣ (Extra) European Regulations. Let’s debunk the myth that only Europe enjoys regulating the supply chain. Those working across global time zones know that regulatory trends are everywhere. Like it or not, they must be embraced and tackled.
