As businesses scale across entities and borders, finance is usually the first function to feel systems that no longer fit. Consolidation done by hand, reporting drawn from disconnected sources, spreadsheets holding data the system should, and mounting pressure to be AI-ready when automation depends on unified data. 

None of this reflects a failure of Xero. It's just what happens when a business outgrows it. 

Join us for a conversation with Nelli Penzes, Finance Manager at Lifecykel, who helped lead finance through exactly that move as the business expanded into the United States.

Attendees will leave able to:

• Recognise the operational signs that current systems are constraining the business
• Understand what a unified platform enables, from multi-entity consolidation to an automated close, through the detail of a real migration
• Assess whether their finance data is ready to support emerging AI and automation

Questions are welcome throughout and will be addressed in an extended Q&A.
