March 15, 2017 – Halifax, NS – Today, Catherine Dahl, CEO of Beanworks, addressed a crowd of business owners and leaders at Sage Sessions in Halifax to highlight the vital role accounts payable automation plays in saving businesses both valuable time and money. Beanworks and Sage recently announced a groundbreaking industry partnership to help small- and medium-sized businesses automate their accounts payable workflow in order to reduce the amount of lost revenue due to manual accounting errors.
“A new wave of change has arrived,” says Catherine Dahl, CEO of Beanworks. “Accounting 3.0 is here; Automation and AI are taking over the accounting software market. This is the future of the industry, and Beanworks is happy to lead the charge.”
Having recently completed a Series A first close lead by Vancouver Founder Fund, Beanworks will use the funds for expansion and execution of the Sage Partnership, which officially launches in April of this year.
“I’m a business owner myself and I know that small revenue losses substantially add up over time,” says Dahl. “I’m excited to be in Halifax to speak with entrepreneurs and business owners from the East Coast about the important role workflow automation plays in taking their business to the next level.”
While in Halifax, Beanworks also announced significant organizational changes, highlighting the rapid growth of both the team and organization as a whole. Dahl proudly announced that Robert Fink has joined Beanworks as VP Engineering, along with senior finance leader Jack Hilliard as VP Finance, and business development specialist Sarah Wielens as Director of Strategic Partners. Past Director of Engineering and co-founder Reza Sanaie was deservedly promoted to Chief Innovation Officer (CIO). The Beanworks team looks forward to providing their innovative product to business owners in Halifax and across North America.
