5 Core Challenges to Supplier Diversity in Europe

A great post from Kaleida mentioning 5 core challenges to Supplier Diversity in Europe, UK and the rest of the world with No 1 being ” Finding Diverse Suppliers”.

Another major challenge in regions outside the U.S., especially in Europe, is the lack of legislation for including diverse owned companies in tenders and for spending requirements. This, combined with cultural differences and GDPR regulations, makes it difficult for companies to develop such programs.
