London’s CFO Techstack conference, Stacked, took place last week and we enjoyed every minute of it. We were inspired by the many CFOs and finance leaders we met.
Held by CFO Techstack, a leading community for forward-thinking in-house finance teams, Stacked 2024 was the event for these teams looking to build the best tech stack and become better in-house finance leaders.
All-in-all Stacked 2024 lived up to its promise as an inspirational event for finance professionals.
Speaking before the event, David Tuck, CEO and Co-founder of Mayday and CFO Techstack, commented:
“Xero’s sponsorship of Stacked 2024 underscores our shared commitment to empower finance teams with innovative tools and insights to maximise their impact. While Xero has a strategic vision to serve accountants and bookkeepers, we have witnessed firsthand how in-house finance teams can achieve remarkable growth using Xero and connected apps. We are excited to highlight the incredible potential of Xero and its ecosystem, and to encourage more companies to leverage this platform as they scale well into their growth phase.”
Mayday itself is a software platform designed to help multi-entity businesses scale with Xero, while Xero’s open ecosystem has been designed to allow third-party apps to integrate with Xero, enabling companies to build a best-of-breed custom tech stack that helps them run their business and manage their finances. By combining Xero’s core accounting capabilities with the choice of over 1,100 connected apps in their ecosystem, in-house finance teams using Xero can tailor the platform to meet their unique requirements. Our Joiin platform is one such Xero-connected app, which brings together multi-entity Xero data into great-looking consolidated group reports without the need for manual workarounds or multiple complex spreadsheets.
On the day, it was great to be acknowledged by Michael Green, GM of Partnerships at Xero, who commented that the Xero ecosystem and apps like Mayday and Joiin are a key part of Xero’s plan for serving larger organisations.
Speaking after Stacked, Lucien Wynn, Co-Founder of Joiin who sponsored the event, said:
“It was a pleasure to meet so many inspirational CFOs and finance leaders who get the challenges presented by consolidated group reporting and want to understand the intricacies of how our consolidated reporting app will help them to meet and beat these challenges.”
“As one of our support team at the event commented the day was like a series of live support tickets, solved by chatting to delegates there and then, and demonstrating how our app solves the consolidation conundrum. Delegates were keen to learn about our easy integration with Xero, our app’s straightforward automated processes that remove the headaches caused by manual consolidations and complex spreadsheets, as well as the variety of reporting options we provide. We even delved deep into specific areas such as how our app handles inter-company eliminations and multi-currency group reporting. It was a very productive day. Well done Stacked 2024.“
