Our People
Paul Digweed
Founder and CEO
After more than 30 years in procurement, consulting and commercial leadership roles, Paul launched SPV to help embed sustainability and AI into Australian companies. Indeed he shares: ‘Doing a deep dive on AI in procurement since leaving my latest Head of Procurement role in mid 2025, I am astonished how fast the tech has moved. It really seems to me that companies investing now in procurement orchestration with embedded AI are going to create a competitive leadership position by 2027. That is over and above the ‘no-brainer’ business case with rapid ROI.’
