Maybe naive, maybe not, is it us that has lost the potential of procurement? Teo Butnarescu, a rising Romanian talent in architecture and product design engineering, offers a fresh perspective on procurement, sustainability, and cultural shifts. He - like many millennials and Gen Z - deliberately swerving LinkedIn as 'Roblex' and other platforms resonates more with younger generations. Teo’s preference is for digital spaces with younger participants offering different features and functionalities. With boundless energy and unwavering confidence in his worldview, Teo's digital native certainty propels his endeavours in and out of the workspace. His absolute conviction reflects that of a new vocal generation, confidently rejecting established norms (even in the absence of proposed transformative solutions). This youthful vigour, coupled with audacious certainty of 'knowing better,' underscores Teo's contribution to the Map & Territory panel with Stephen Ashcroft and Mario Bruggmann‎‎‎‎‎ on challenging the status quo. Can we actually shape a brighter, more inclusive future informed by such youthful perspectives? Teo encapsulates the essence of youthful aspirations, embracing the richness and depth of life's possibilities with a sense of certainty in his vision. Join Teo and 25+ provocative and diverse speakers at Map & Territory. ______________________________________ Map & Territory isn’t just another professional development program (no negotiation tips, not top ten soft skills, no category management) ; it’s a commitment to change - change in procurement, sustainability and culture. Join us on this journey. Online from 14 May, with an in-person Hackathon on 19-20 June in Timisoara, Romania.

It was a humbling experience to attend the EUmies Awards in Barcelona this week and see our work amongst such incredible company. My main reflection was that both of the winning projects (https://lnkd.in/eGqt8V9J and https://lnkd.in/ecjY3KgW) were completed by young emerging practitioners, with the projects won in competition, rather than based on previous experience. Both projects were awarded through public procurement systems within the EU (Germany and Spain) suggesting there is a route to a more open system which produced two of the best buildings in Europe. Less can be more……
