Our CTO Hugh has spent 20+ years leading teams through every major tech shift from ERP rollouts, cloud migration, mobile. In his latest piece for Forbes, he argues AI is different, and not just because it's faster.
The risk isn't that AI fails. It's that it succeeds just enough to look like progress, without ever driving the change that actually matters.

MTN Ghana has a pretty simple goal for AI: make asking Copilot feel as normal as sending an email.
They’re getting there by using it in their existing workflows. When an unexpected question comes up during a live review, Vena Copilot pulls up the data in real time, so the team can continue the conversation without missing a step.

That changes what finance can spend its time on. There’s more room to understand what changed, talk through what it means for the business and help shape what happens next.

MTN Ghana GM Financial Planning & Analysis Kwame Moloko shares how they’re building that habit with Vena and where they want to take it next.

At SpryPoint, over 20 budget owners now plan directly in Vena, without having to chase down spreadsheets or fix transcription errors. That freed-up time let Senior FP&A Manager Marchael Cunanan focus on something bigger: laying a trusted data foundation for AI-powered planning.

"Once you're able to trust it, you're actually able to run your AI and focus on higher-order thinking and business partnership."

This is what on-time ex*****on looks like when finance, business and IT teams plan on one governed foundation.

With businesses responding to new changes or disruptions nearly every day, finance teams create value by ensuring their company can act on an insight, rather than simply reporting on it.

To do that, they must extend beyond a traditional partnership role to establish themselves as enterprise orchestrators, connecting insights, decisions and ex*****on across the business.

But are FP&A teams ready to take on this new role?

Vena's 2026 FP&A Impact Report found that only 12% of finance leaders consider their FP&A operations as "leading" in maturity, suggesting most teams still have a long road ahead.

In this new report, we break down the four levels of FP&A maturity and chart the journey organizations need to take to operate at the speed their business requires rather than waiting for the next reforecast.

How do you get every market on board with a change they didn't ask for?

On this episode of The CFO Show, Vena CFO Melissa Howatson sits down with Grant Thornton Advisors CEO Jim Peko who's navigated exactly that, rolling out a standardized system across markets that all had their own way of doing things. His suggestion is to skip more mandates and instead, beef up communication. This looks like showing people the upside, giving them a real roadmap, and letting them see what's in it for them before asking them to change.

Local flexibility and global consistency don't have to be at odds. Learn how to strike that balance without losing either one.

Customer satisfaction takes shape across the full experience: the product, implementation, support and every interaction that follows.

That is why this recognition from BPM Partners is especially meaningful. We're excited to share that Vena has received the highest overall customer satisfaction score among the selected vendors in its 2026 comparison, which measured 15 attributes across the customer experience.

The result reflects the trust our customers place in Vena and the commitment our teams bring to helping them succeed. We are proud of the recognition and committed to continuing to earn that trust.

When a financial close stretches to 10 or 15 business days, that means it takes even longer to get reporting. At TouchBistro, that meant the CFO was seeing results late, week three or four of the month, just as the next cycle began.

Luckily that changed after working with MCC, experts in the Vena ecosystem. Same-day reporting stopped being an aspiration at TouchBistro and started being a reality. The team now has the process down to 20 minutes.
