E-Invoicing Series: Susie West interviews Kevin Akeroyd, CEO, SOVOS Trends, ViDA, And What's Coming

Description

The e-invoicing timetable for the coming months will stress-test most VAT, Finance and IT teams – and 2025 is a quiet year(!) compared to 2026 (Belgium, Poland, Greece, Latvia, France, etc!).


Watch this interview, which will help:


  • Energize your teams towards action now, rather than waiting
  • Equip you with questions to ask your service providers well ahead of selecting one and signing a contract
  • Highlight trends and timings related to ViDA, the death of supplier portals, and when e-invoicing will become Supplier-led
  • Provide a plan for what to do when your straight-through process metrics drop because your government only mandates tax information


Susie West, CEO, sharedserviceslink, had a great talk with Kevin Ackeroyd, CEO at SOVOS. (He hadn’t seen her questions ahead of the interview, and no money changed hands.)


Please use these interviews as part of your toolbox to assess providers. Susie’s next interview with an E-Invoicing Provider CEO will land in the coming weeks. If you would like her to ask a question on your behalf, please send your question to enquire@sharedserviceslink.com. These interviews are key to getting a look behind the scenes. We want to make sure that you, the potential buyer, are going into a contract with your eyes OPEN. Especially during a time of “panic-buying” and confusion.


For now, enjoy this interview, and please share. We cover a lot. And get in touch so we can put your pressing question to our next CEO.
