Last week, AccountingDepartment.com's Sr. Technology Integration Specialist, Joy, was able to attend Expensify's ExpensiCon event in Puglia, Italy! ExpensiCon is a 5-day event packed full of connecting, community building, and getting stuff done.
It brought together industry leaders, finance professionals, and technology experts for an immersive experience in Italy's beautiful Borgo Egnazia countryside. Throughout the event, there were many opportunities for attendees to experience the New.Expensify app and enjoy all that Italy has to offer.
Joy was able to participate in happy hours to mingle with many other influencers in the accounting world and take part in exciting excursions, such as a catamaran ride on the Adriatic Sea along the coast of Puglia.
Throughout the event, Expensify had attendees utilize their New.Expensify app that integrates an interactive chat tool for businesses. Expensify believes that every payment should be a conversation, so splitting bills, submitting invoices, and more can be done with the New.Expensify app.
To gather feedback from attendees, the new Expensify app was used for everything you could imagine. From flight reservations, room service requests, dinner reservations, and more, the concierge was able to handle it all.
Other new and exciting Expensify features were unveiled at the event that includes:
George Clooney also made an appearance on stage sharing his perspectives on building multiple businesses and engaging in projects that encourage social good.
