Xero Blog

It attracts thousands of accountants and bookkeepers from around the world, puts the latest Xero product announcements up in lights, and invites you to choose your own adventure among our breakout discussions and ecosystem partners, but the importance of coming together for Xerocon Brisbane 2019 is about more than fun and fanfare. 

We’re thrilled to announce the return of Xero Roadshow Canada! This fall, we’re heading to 13 cities across the country to meet with Canadian accountants and bookkeepers to explore the future of cloud accounting, share the latest digital efficiencies, and present the newest Xero product updates for the market.

Check out the latest updates for small businesses and advisors, plus a peek at what’s coming soon. Xero changes and release updates can be found in Xero Central or keep an eye on the feature timeline for a summary of some of our bigger releases.

I’m really proud to announce that Xero has won gold in the 16th Annual International Business Awards® – also known as the Stevie® Awards.  We won Customer Service Team of the Year for our beautiful automated bank feeds experience.

When it comes to jargon; the business world just can’t get enough. If we’re not focusing our efforts on ‘synergising’, then we’re hard at work ‘laddering up’ or ‘drilling down’. And then there are the acronyms…  What does it all mean?

There’s no better time than Xerocon to explore the power of the Xero app ecosystem. But with more than 75 apps exhibitors and only a few days to visit them, it’s vital to have a clear idea of the problems you’re looking to solve.

At Xero, we believe it’s important to reward our accounting, bookkeeping and ecosystem partners for their hard work and perseverance. That’s why we recognise and celebrate them at the Xero Awards.
