Ep 7: Telling the Ivalua Story feat. David Khuat-Duy

RELEASED 5/7/2024

Today’s emerging technology is based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, but it wasn’t so very long ago that the Internet, followed by cloud computing and SaaS, revolutionized enterprise systems. 

At the start of each new age, disruptive thinkers have to imagine – and then build – platforms that are able to apply the new capabilities to specific use cases. Fortunately, procurement and supply chain are often early beneficiaries of this progress.

In this episode of the #LoveProcurement podcast, Philip Ideson is joined by David Khuat-Duy, Founder and CEO of Ivalua, to talk about how procurement – and procurement technology – have progressed since the company was founded in 2000.

David shares his observations from over two decades worth of change in the procurement space:

  • The vision for procurement impact that was driving technology development in the early 2000’s
  • How customer and user demand have shaped the journey over the last two decades
  • The innovation and experimentation happening today that are shaping the future of the procurement tech landscape
