The "Interdisciplinary Symposium on Public Procurement", together with the Public Procurement Management Master program in Rome and Belgrade, the Global Procurement Conference and the IMPPM ALUMNI Association, contributes to the IMPPM Constellation, a multifaceted “ecosystem” for learning and discussing on new and challenging ideas across the disciplines of public procurement; a community of experts with different backgrounds who join periodically to debate on procurement issues.
The aim of the Symposium is to bring together economists, engineers, lawyers, management scholars and professionals in the field of public procurement through dialogue and discussion. The organizers have the ambition to reduce the terminology barrier between all interested parties, bridging the cross cultural divide and reaching a joint wider understanding of practical issues in public procurement.
The Symposium attempts to suggest reform measures for better rules of acquisition for Public Administrations and provides a platform for the discussion on the challenging issues of the modern practices in public procurement.
