Event Description

Join us for an intimate, in-person conversation on how organizations are modernizing their Travel & Expense (T&E) processes to move faster, stay compliant, and gain real-time control over spend. We’ll unpack the hidden bottlenecks that drain time and budget, explore how automation is delivering near-total accuracy and reconciliation, and discuss what it takes to enforce policy at the point of purchase—not weeks later. You’ll also hear real-world perspectives on reporting, forecasting, and whether consolidation or integration is the smarter path forward for sustainable growth.

BWG Connect, Brex & Navan invite you to join us for an interactive discussion over drinks and dinner with your peers! We'll explore the latest trends in the space and get your questions answered.

As always, there will be no sales pitches and dinner is complimentary.

Seating is limited, and RSVP is required.

Discussion Topics

  • Discuss common bottlenecks in T&E workflows — where are organizations losing the most time, money, or visibility.
  • How automation improves speed, compliance, and accuracy to the point of 100% reconciliation.
  • How to effectively enforce policy at point-of-purchase rather than after the fact.
  • Understanding visibility, real-time reporting, and how finance teams can forecast and model with better data.
  • Pros and cons of consolidating vs. integrating specialized tools—what’s more sustainable?
