eBF 2026

eBF Festival is a unique event that combines a professional conference with a true festival atmosphere, fully dedicated to the digitalisation of corporate procurement and public purchasing. The 22nd edition of eBF will take place on 19–22 May 2026 in Ostrava, in the exceptional post-industrial setting of the Dolní Vítkovice complex.

For many years, eBF has been a meeting place for practitioners, experts, public procurement leaders, corporate purchasing professionals and providers of modern digital solutions. What makes the event stand out is its informal, festival-style formula, which encourages open exchange of knowledge, inspiration and experience—both on expert stages and in dedicated networking zones.

What makes eBF unique?

• expert keynotes and panel discussions focused on digitalisation, automation and innovation in procurement,
• hands-on workshops and thematic eProcurement and eSourcing sessions,
• a unique combination of public procurement and corporate purchasing communities,
• friendly, colorful networking within a dedicated “festival village,”
• accompanying activities such as a morning run, art exhibitions and informal coffee meetings.

Key program highlights

• Fair Sourcing Awards (FSA) – a prestigious gala recognizing the most innovative and effective projects in the digitalisation of corporate procurement and public purchasing,
• Caffè Lungo (Long Coffee) – a series of intimate roundtable discussions with inspiring personalities from outside the procurement world,
• RAZEM Exhibition – a distinctive blend of procurement and art, created by participants, organizers and their friends.

eBF Festival is not just a conference—it is a community of people open to dialogue, innovation and collaboration, seeking practical solutions to the challenges facing modern procurement and public purchasing, all within an inspiring and friendly atmosphere.
