As we head to Sage Future for Partners North America, we're building on an incredible year with Sage. In 2025, DataBlend was honored as Sage Global Technology Partner of the Year and welcomed into the Sage Platinum Club. We were also recognized as Sage UKI Tech Partner of the Year, reflecting our continued commitment to innovation and partner success across the Sage ecosystem. Earlier this year at Sage Future in San Francisco, DataBlend introduced PopdockAI on the main stage, showcasing how AI-powered access to real-time business data can help finance teams make faster, more informed decisions. Today, DataBlend proudly supports 800+ shared Sage customers, helping organizations get even more value from their Sage investment.
Representing DataBlend at this year's event are Erik Neilssen and Laura Merola. They'll be meeting with Sage partners to discuss how DataBlend simplifies integrations, accelerates implementations, and empowers customers with automated workflows, including the latest capabilities available through Sage Data Flows.
Whether you're looking to enhance your Sage offerings, simplify customer integrations, or explore new partnership opportunities, we'd love to connect!
