NetSuite is the unified business management suite helping organizations all over the world unlock growth. In 1998, we pioneered the cloud computing revolution, establishing the world’s first company dedicated to delivering business applications over the internet. Today, our suite of business management software is used by more than 25,000 organizations in over 200 countries and territories to manage critical business processes—including ERP/financials, CRM, ecommerce, HR, supply chain and more—and enable successful, sustainable growth.

Cloud-based software has brought a dizzying array of business applications to small businesses, but just because it’s possible to connect multiple applications to support your operations, does not mean this is always the most effective or efficient approach.

Join us for this On Demand webinar where you will hear from Ben Irving, COO of Mons Royale, and Ethan Nyholm, Global CEO at STM Brands. We’ll discuss the benefits they have realised by adopting ERP and how NetSuite provides them with the visibility, flexibility and control required to navigate change and empower their teams.

Business Leader Insights - Moving Beyond Accounting Software to ERP

[Originally aired as part of NetSuite Now On Air: Asia Pacific in 2020]

Entrepreneurs come from a broad range of backgrounds. Their motivations for setting up their businesses are numerous, and their view of 'success' varies significantly. However, what unifies all entrepreneurs is their desire to do things differently. To disrupt, to ask questions and to change the face of whichever industry they are in. In this panel discussion, we'll chat with leading APAC entrepreneurs about a range of topics including motivations for starting their business, lessons from 2020, how technology has supported their success, what they wish they knew when they were starting out, and the plans for the future and the role technology will play.

Level Up your Planning and Budgeting with NetSuite

Today’s manufacturers, distributors and retailers are challenged with operating increasingly complex and internationally distributed supply chains, in rapidly changing market conditions and with shifting customer expectations. They need to continually find ways to adapt, innovate and maintain their competitive advantage.

Many supply chains were set up in a time when the business environment was predictable. Nowadays, the world has gone digital and traditional supply chains cannot keep up—managing a supply chain in the cloud is not only easier, but more prudent than ever.

View this on-demand webinar with Mark Kelly, Founder and CEO of Global Surf Industries, as we discuss:
*The benefits of a modern, end-to-end supply chain.
*How a cloud-based supply chain provides you the visibility you need to run your business.
*Staying agile in a changing environment.

Managing an Agile Supply Chain in the Cloud

If you’re still using spreadsheets for budgeting, it’s probably NOT because you think these are the best tools for the job, but rather because it was the best solution at the time or you hadn’t had the chance to consider an alternative. Using manual processes and spreadsheets as a budgeting tool is error-prone and creates challenges for organizations.

In this webinar you will learn how to:
- Gain greater control and visibility over your budgets.
- Reduce your budgeting cycle times.
- Streamline and automate data collection.
- Increase collaboration with business stakeholders.

How to Automate Your Planning and Budgeting

As we enter 2021, financial forecasts remain a moving target. With so much uncertainty still looming, how does your business continue to strategize for the future? What are the trends that are the most important to examine? And how are external factors impacting your business in ways that you can’t easily predict?

In partnership with Entrepreneur.com, business communication expert and Dynamic Communication author Jill Schiefelbein will lead a conversation with two leading CFOs about what they’re examining, analyzing, and planning in 2021 and beyond. 

Jason Balk, CFO at Adtegrity, and Dan Rosenthal, CFO at Root Insurance will share best practices to predict and plan, help uncover how financial roles are evolving and the financial trends that your company needs to be paying attention in the future.

You will learn in this webinar:
• Different viewpoints on short term and long-term planning, and how these have changed in the past year
• Cascading impacts on your bottom line that are emerging from external business factors
• Reaction timelines and how they need to change based on underlying data
• Cash flow versus sales data, and how marrying the two together gives you the best picture
• Responsibilities in accounting and financial positions and how they need to change to adapt to the current economic environment

Finance in 2021: Planning for the Future

Many successful software and technology companies are seen as the visionaries of our time. But it’s not just vision that makes a market leader—the ability to scale and remain agile also drives success.

In a rapidly evolving landscape full of new competitors, changing consumer demands and legislations, software and technology companies need a solid foundation to ensure they aren’t swept up in the wave. Wouldn’t you rather be focusing on innovation the industry is known for instead of manual processes?

Join us for a conversation with Darren Cooper (Global CFO, Reveal Group) and Tim Murton (CFO, SYPAQ Systems) as we discuss:

- The importance of a scalable, cloud-based solution.
- How an ERP can help you streamline your business processes and overcome manual work.
- How to upgrade your fragmented systems and siloed data.
- Staying agile in the rapidly changing software industry.

Building a Foundation for Success: ERP for Software and Technology Companies

It’s safe to say the role of CFO has evolved. Today, finance leaders are involved in business transformation, driving innovation and spearheading strategy, amongst an array of other responsibilities. So what skills are required to perform the role now and what will CFOs of the future need to succeed? In this panel discussion, you’ll discover unique insights from leading APAC CFOs, as they discuss the evolution of the role in recent times, the impact of technology on finance teams, planning and forecasting during times of uncertainty, and how technology will impact the CFO of the future.

CFO of the Future: How Technology Has Changed Finance Forever

Crises can reveal weaknesses and the spread of the coronavirus pandemic has made clear the lack of visibility many businesses had into their suppliers and manufacturers and exposed the fragility of their supply chains.

To continue on the path of recovery, businesses must react rapidly to hiccups in its networks. Product companies need to take a hard look at their current supply chain strategies and change them if necessary or risk putting the business in jeopardy. Meticulous planning and real-time data are secrets to timely decision-making.

In this webinar, we’ll explore:

- Supply chain vulnerabilities and lessons learned from COVID-19 breakdowns
- Top techniques for building resilient supply chain
- How to reduce risks and interruptions for the future

Speakers:

- Javier M. Alarcia, CFO & COO, NadaMoo!
- Jerry Marks, Director of Business Analytics & Project Management, Revival Parts
- Craig Harris, Segment Leader and Industry Principal: Apparel, Footwear and Accessories, Oracle NetSuite

How to Build and Maintain a Resilient Supply Chain

CFOs have never worked harder. In response to the events of the past year, they’ve steered their organisations through the most difficult conditions businesses have likely ever faced by pulling financial and operational levers they never thought they’d have to pull, including ones they didn’t even know were there.

But how do businesses move forward in 2021? With the clear vision, strategy and tools that only finance leaders can offer.

In partnership with ACCA, we'll cover during this webinar:
- Results from our recent CFO survey, including the top voted challenges, priorities and spending plans of CFOs
- What does a successful finance team look like now?
- The biggest changes finance is likely to see over the next 5 years
