Procurement Magazine

What Procurement Magazine does

Procurement Magazine is a B2B digital media and events platform serving senior procurement and supply chain executives globally. Operated as a flagship brand within BizClik, a UK-based B2B media conglomerate, the platform distributes editorial content (news, articles, interviews, Top 10 lists, magazines), research products (The Procurement Survey, Top 100 Reports, whitepapers, company reports), audio/video content (Weekly Podcast Series launched April 2026, 392+ videos, 48+ webinars), and live events (Procurement LIVE summits in London and Chicago, co-located with Supply Chain LIVE and Sustainability LIVE). The publishing cadence shifted from monthly to bi-weekly in November 2025, signaling content intensification. Audience reach spans North America (37%), UK & Europe (33%), APAC (16%), MEA (9%), and LATAM (5%), with the 2025 Procurement Survey engaging 642 senior executives and the US Summit 2026 targeting 2,000+ attendees.

The underlying technology is a content management system and digital publishing platform layered with event-management infrastructure and a digital advertising network; no proprietary AI/ML product or technical platform of consequence is described in the source material. The revenue model is multi-stream B2B media economics: digital advertising, event sponsorship and ticket revenue, whitepaper/content partnerships with vendors, demand-generation and data services, and virtual event/webinar monetization. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, reflecting the customized enterprise nature of media buys and sponsorships. Customers on the paying side are predominantly enterprise technology vendors (Coupa, AWS, Google, Microsoft, Ironclad, Sirion Labs, LinkSquares, Agiloft, Ivalua, Pactum AI), large enterprise procurement organizations (Schneider Electric, Siemens, Jabil, Johnson & Johnson, PepsiCo, Target, Estée Lauder, Reckitt, Toyota), and advisory firms (Gartner, McKinsey, Kearney, EY). Procurement Magazine sits within BizClik's portfolio alongside Supply Chain Digital, Manufacturing Digital, and other industry publications, leveraging cross-brand distribution and shared commercial infrastructure.
