Great to be part of the Gartner Finance Symposium/Xpo. It was an incredible event filled with forward-thinking conversations. 🙌 A big thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and connected with the team. We truly appreciate the engagement! As expected, AI dominated the conversation, but the focus has clearly shifted to making it work in practice. We also took the stage to discuss AI ROI in finance, highlighting a critical truth: success isn’t just about the models — it’s about the data behind them. A few key themes that stood out: ➡️ Treat AI like an investment portfolio Balance quick wins with long-term strategy to drive real impact. ➡️ It’s not the AI—it’s the data 71% of finance teams say AI isn’t delivering, and data readiness is often the gap. ➡️ AI washing is real Transparency and auditability matter more than ever, and not all AI is created equal. Every response via Ask Sovi is cited, every confidence score is honest, and every human decision is recorded for audit purposes. The takeaway: real progress with AI comes down to data, strategy and trust. Let’s keep the conversation going.
⚽ The world is watching 104 matches - but compliance teams are tracking something else entirely. As the world turns its attention to the upcoming tournament, another global competition is unfolding behind the scenes. The race to keep up with accelerating tax and e-invoicing mandates is on. Across some of the competitors, the rules are changing fast. For example: 🇫🇷 France’s 2026 rollout will require platform-based e‑invoicing and real-time reporting. 🇵🇱 Poland is already enforcing centralized invoice clearance through KSeF. 🇧🇷 Brazil continues to set the pace with one of the world’s most mature real-time compliance models. The difference? In this “game”, there is no halftime. No off-season. Explore the starting line-up of our Global TaxScapes for a world view of where mandates are live, rolling out, or coming next. And make sure your team is ready to complete.
