Over the past week, we’ve had the great honour of crowning the Xero Australia Award winners for FY22. After all of the disruption and uncertainty brought on by the pandemic, a celebration of the business community was well and truly deserved.

We are thrilled to announce that entries for the Xero Awards are now open for our UK, Ireland and South Africa accounting, bookkeeping and app partners. The last year has again amplified the important role that our partner community has played.

At Xero, a single goal guides everything we do: the desire to make life better for people in small business, their advisors and communities around the world.  It’s a purpose that resonates with me for a few reasons.

Xero connects with over 1,000 apps that help small businesses and their advisors succeed, with most available in the Xero App Store. Each month we celebrate an app partner who stands out for helping small businesses thrive.

If I can think of one word to describe the last 19 months, it would be resilience. As a community of advisors and small businesses, we supported each other, and we endured.

The New Zealand Xero Awards are all about celebrating the incredible work of our diverse range of accounting, bookkeeping, and app partners who help small Kiwi businesses thrive. There is no better time to honour this community’s admirable mahi, and we are incredibly proud to shine a spotlight on their outstanding achievements over the past year. 

Since the pandemic’s arrival, Australians have faced all kinds of new challenges. Yet, through it all, the small business community has shown unwavering resilience, confirming that COVID-19 has by no means diminished its entrepreneurial spirit.

Thanks to the power of technology, Xero’s Responsible Data Use Advisory Council recently came together on Zoom across five time zones for our first meeting to progress the discussion around responsible data use.
