OUR FEATURED SESSION
Partner Solution Showcase: Budgeting Simplified: The Rise of AI-Driven Analysis
11:00am - 12:00pm | Delta Mezzanine 7, Level M
Most finance teams running Microsoft Dynamics already have the data they need. The hard part is turning it into insight when budgeting still depends on manual spreadsheets and rework. Rose Shah, Senior Sales Representative for Industry Solutions, shows how an AI-accelerated extended financial planning and analysis (xFP&A) solution extends your Dynamics ERP, connecting operational and financial data into a single source of truth. You'll also see how the Analysis Agent surfaces trends, anomalies, and potential risks so forecasts, budgets, and capital plans move faster.
OUR BOOTH
Expo Hall: Visit Solver at Booth #441
12:00pm - 6:30pm
Stop by for live demos, conversations about your planning challenges, and a chance to win Ray-Ban Meta AI Glasses. Look for the giant dragon and bring the questions you usually hand off to your finance team, like "Show me where we are vs. budget" or "Is our forecast on track?" Just say "Hey Agent," and our team will show you how the Analysis Agent answers questions about financial data connected from Microsoft Dynamics 365. While you're there, see how planning, reporting, consolidation, and analysis come together in one cloud-based suite, with patented QuickStart integrations and industry templates built for manufacturing, distribution, retail, finance, nonprofit, healthcare, and other vertical markets.
Solver Copilot, including the Analysis Agent, is currently available to US customers and is enabled by a customer administrator.
FEATURED SESSION
Premier Spotlight: AI Is Changing Budgeting. Here's a First Look.
1:45pm - 1:55pm | Legends Stage, Booth 957
Ten minutes, one clear takeaway. Rose Shah gives you a first look at how the Analysis Agent turns disconnected data into faster, more confident budgeting decisions with far less manual rework, and what that shift means for your own budgeting workflow.
BOOTH MEETUP
Nonprofit Meetup: Continue the Conversation - From Data to Decisions
2:30pm - 3:00pm | Booth #441
Calling all nonprofit finance and operations professionals. Pick up where the Premier Spotlight left off and join Rose Shah at our booth for a 15-minute presentation followed by 10 minutes of Q&A.

EXPERT PANEL, FEATURING NILS RASMUSSEN
Ask the FP&A Experts: Budgeting, Forecasting & Reporting Best Practices
3:30pm - 4:30pm | Delta Mezzanine 4, Level M
Budgeting, forecasting, and reporting are rarely as simple as they look on paper. Our CEO, Nils Rasmussen, joins senior leaders from several FP&A solution providers for an interactive panel on the challenges they see across hundreds of finance teams, from spreadsheet sprawl and version control to getting managers engaged in planning. This isn't a product pitch. Bring your questions and real-world scenarios, and walk away with practical best practices you can put to use right away.
Wednesday, October 14th: Summitland Prizes, Manufacturing Meetup and the Grand Ole Opry
BOOTH MEETUP
Manufacturing Meetup: Continue the Conversation, From Data to Decisions
2:00pm - 2:30pm | Booth #441
Manufacturing finance teams know the drill: demand shifts, material and labor costs move, and the plan built in January rarely survives the summer. Bring those challenges to Booth #441 for a quick session with Rose Shah, who'll show how manufacturers are using AI-driven analysis on their Dynamics data to spot margin pressure early, reforecast faster, and plan capital spending with more confidence. Stick around for open Q&A with peers who face the same issues on the plant floor and in the boardroom, and enter the drawing for a $100 gift card of your choice. The timing works in your favor, too. The meetup ends at 2:30pm, leaving plenty of time to get your badge scanned for Summitland before the 3:00pm deadline.
