Xero Blog

In just a few months, we’re heading back to Sydney’s iconic Darling Harbour for Xerocon 2023! On 23 and 24 August, we’re bringing our partner community together from across the globe for two inspiring days.

With the busy summer season approaching in the northern hemisphere, many small businesses are gearing up for the busiest time of the year. And while the increase in customers provides a nice boost in revenue, the summer months also bring unique challenges. 

The annual Xero Awards is a particularly special night for us at Xero. It’s a chance for us to show our appreciation and admiration to the many incredible accounting, bookkeeping, and app partners in our community. 

Shark Wheel is a Southern California wheel company that is literally reinventing the wheel. They have produced a new type of a 540° sine wave-shaped wheel that outperforms the traditional wheel in almost every use – from skateboarding and roller skates through to luggage, forklift wheels and tractor tires.

Over recent years, the world of accounting and bookkeeping has evolved with the times. From  advancing business models to offering expanded services to be able to meet new client demands; change has been a constant for the industry.

One of my favourite things since starting at Xero Asia is the discovery of the many cloud applications that empower the region’s SMEs by making them more efficient and productive. Now that Singapore has entered an endemic phase, I can’t wait to get out there and meet more of the Xero community. 

A version of this blog was originally published as part of HubSpot’s ‘State of Partner Ops and Programs 2022’ report – you can read the full report here.  As we continue to grow as a global business platform, our partnerships are an invaluable part of how we support and provide #beautiful solutions to our customers.

We’re excited to welcome Bristol-based climate tech start-up, Ecologi, to the Xero App Store to support service-based small businesses in the UK to track and reduce their impact on the environment. 

Xero has more than 1000 connected apps in its ecosystem, all working to help small businesses and their advisors succeed. Each month we celebrate an app partner who stands out from the pack.
