We are entering an almost unprecedented global situation created by three converging - and interconnected - crises. As we approach 2023, the world is facing major food shortages, a commodity crisis, and a financial crisis.

There's a Simpler Way It's not your fault. Implementation was not supposed to take this long, nor was it supposed to cost this much. But what's worse – it didn't really get you the results you expected. If you've implemented a Source-to-Pay (S2P) automation solution, this might sound familiar. But when you listened to vendors in this space, you...

Jacqueline Durbin Global Head of Product - Life, Pensions & Mortgage at Iress
This time of year is traditionally one for self-reflection and resolving to make changes or improvements. Many of us set ourselves goals or promise to do something specific - give up smoking, lose a stone in weight, go to the gym 3 times a week.

Whether you are a beginner looking for a place to start, or a veteran looking to try new things, $1000 can be a great amount for an initial investment. It’s a value big enough to yield returns in real numbers — as well as just earning decimal increments — and yet it’s small enough that losing a portion of that amount likely won’t ruin you.
