Description

Europe's first wave of mandatory B2B e-invoicing programmes has now gone live. The planning is over, the testing is complete, and enterprises are operating under live mandates. For the first time, there is a wealth of real implementation experience to learn from.

As organisations prepare for the next wave of European mandates in 2027, this webinar will distil the seven realities that emerged from those first go-lives. Drawing on hands-on implementation experience, we'll separate assumptions from reality and explore the practical lessons every enterprise should consider before embarking on its own programme.

By attending, you'll gain:

  • The seven implementation realities that shaped the first wave of European mandate go-lives
  • Practical lessons on data integration, testing, government platforms and managing country-specific requirements
  • Insights into why data quality, supplier onboarding and invoice content proved just as critical as technology
  • A clearer understanding of how Finance, Tax, IT and service providers need to work together before, during and after go-live
  • Practical recommendations that will help you reduce implementation risk and prepare with greater confidence for the 2027 wave of mandates

Whether you're planning your first mandate or expanding into additional countries, you'll leave with practical guidance that can help avoid costly mistakes, accelerate implementation and build a stronger, more resilient compliance programme.
