As digital transformation accelerates across finance operations, Global Process Owners (GPOs) are evolving from compliance enforcers and P2P ‘doers’ to strategic enablers of enterprise-wide value. In this session, Thomson Reuters will explore how GPOs can lead automation initiatives spanning global e-invoicing mandates, indirect tax compliance and statutory reporting – unlocking insights and outcomes that support business growth.

Attendees will gain thought leadership on:

• Transitioning from tactical compliance to strategic ownership of finance automation

• Aligning mandate-aware automation with enterprise priorities to maximise value creation

• Embedding continuous improvement through real-time analytics and AI-driven workflows

• Building stakeholder trust through transparency, measurable KPIs, and outcome-driven reporting

E-invoicing, integrated with AP automation, offers a game-changing solution to eliminate bottlenecks and refocus efforts on strategic process improvement.
