ProcureTEX Launches as the First Ever Community-Driven Event for Best-of-Breed Procurement Technology

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new era in enterprise procurement has arrived. ProcureTEX, the first-of-its-kind event designed exclusively for best-of-breed procurement technology providers and forward-thinking procurement teams, will debut on September 17, 2025, in London.

An ecosystem of interoperable tools that seamlessly work together can unlock huge improvements in speed and value

Brought to life by founding partners including Keelvar, Zip, Beroe, and a growing number of top-tier best-of-breed vendors, ProcureTEX is more than a conference — it’s a rallying point for a community that emphasizes interoperability, innovation, and best-in-class technology working together to solve real challenges.

Designed for procurement and digital transformation leaders, ProcureTEX provides a space to explore, build, and experience custom best-of-breed tech stacks that solve specific enterprise challenges — in real time. Live hackathons, practitioner-led workshops, and curated content sessions will put actionable insights at the heart of the agenda.

A Groundbreaking Shift for the Industry

“The future is here, it’s just not equally distributed. For procurement, it’s best-of-breed systems working together,” said Alan Holland, Founder & CEO of Keelvar and founding member of ProcureTEX. “An ecosystem of interoperable tools that seamlessly work together can unlock huge improvements in speed and value.”

Lu Cheng, CTO & Co-Founder of Zip and fellow ProcureTEX founding partner continues, "At Zip, we believe procurement leaders deserve a modern, AI-powered tech stack that keeps pace with the business — not legacy all-in-one suites. The future is best-of-breed, seamlessly orchestrated. That’s why we’re proud to partner with Keevlar and Beroe on ProcureTEX — a space for the procurement community to explore, learn, and build the next-generation stack together."

Vel Dhinagaravel, Founder & CEO of Beroe and founding partner of ProcureTEX adds, “My biggest bugbear with traditional conferences is the way in which all the regular "frictions" associated with procurement seem to disappear - poor data, lack of trust in procurement metrics, disconnected processes, CIO's dictating the choice of procurement software, and many, many more. ProcureTEX will be different: we’re going to acknowledge all of these frictions and focus on ways to work through them.”

Why ProcureTEX Stands Apart

ProcureTEX has been purpose-built around five core principles:

  • Interoperability in Action – Live hackathons showing best-of-breed tools solving real challenges together
  • Curated Content – Thought leadership and hands-on sessions with no fluff or filler
  • Practitioner-Led – Workshops and discussions driven by real users and operators, not vendors
  • Transparent Sponsorship – No pay-to-play speaking slots or gimmicks, participation is earned
  • Proven Providers Only – Vendors are vetted for scalability, interoperability, and enterprise readiness

Who Should Attend

ProcureTEX is designed for enterprise procurement leaders and digital transformation teams looking for scalable, integrated modern solutions. If you’re building the next generation of your procurement stack, and want to see how best-of-breed providers can work together — this is your event.
