Bringing back Appy Hour to Asia

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. 

We’ve learnt in the past few years the importance of being agile and adaptable, and how adopting the right digital tools can be a game-changer. To date, we boast an ecosystem of over 1,000 apps connected to Xero. Through the Xero App Store, third-party apps give Xero customers the ability to select the tools they need to create their own customised, holistic solution that works easily together. Previous studies have shown that small businesses who connected five or more apps to their Xero accounts proved to be more resilient than their non-digital counterparts, showing them less likely to have experienced a drop in sales during the pandemic, and more likely to have retained staff. 

I’m so excited to announce that we are bringing back ‘Appy Hour’ to Asia. These bimonthly sessions will bring together Xero’s ecosystem app and integration partners, small business owners and their advisors who can learn how to best leverage off these tools and build them into their integrated workflows.

Our first session will kick off on 22nd March, focusing on food & beverage (F&B) apps that empower small businesses to leapfrog establishments that utilise complicated, legacy tech solutions that aren’t compatible with other systems. We’ve invited three app partners who will do a live demo, and showcase how their technology can help restaurateurs save time and money and to boost efficiency and business success.
