Hi ðŸ'‹. I'm on a mission to help drive the growth of SMEs and Mid-Market businesses in the UK and Ireland by helping them better manage their cash flow and optimise the way they use their short-term spare cash.

80% of SMEs fail because of cash flow problems.

But with better tools, I believe many of these failures are avoidable. Get in touch if you want to hear about:

➡️ Best practice cash flow management

➡️ How to move on from Excel data reconciliation to accurate, real time cash visibility

➡️ How to move from 1 view / business unit to a centralised source of truth

Worried about your cash flow? Frustrated by hours on Excel and lack of visibility?
You're always welcome to vent over a virtual coffee ☕️

I'm on a mission to help drive the growth of SMEs and Mid-Market businesses in the UK and Ireland by helping them better manage their cash flow and optimise the way they use their short-term spare cash. 80% of SMEs fail because of cash flow problems. But with better tools, I believe many of these failures are avoidable. Get in touch if you want to hear about: ➡️ Best practice cash flow management ➡️ How to move on from Excel data reconciliation to accurate, real time cash visibility ➡️ How to move from 1 view / business unit to a centralised source of truth Worried about your cash flow? Frustrated by hours on Excel and lack of visibility? You're always welcome to vent over a virtual coffee ☕️ When I'm not working I can be found: - Watching whale and big cat documentaries - Playing football, tennis and chess

Vjekoslav Babić (Vjeko) is a Business Central architect, developer, trainer, author and blogger with over three decades of IT experience, two of which have been spent in the Business Central ecosystem.

His passion lies in web and mobile technologies, but deep down he's an incurable hacker who loves writing code and breaking things apart to see how they work.

As a frequent conference speaker and blogger, Vjeko pushes the boundaries of what's possible, connecting Business Central with anything that can be plugged into it through obscure loopholes or undocumented interfaces, especially when they're not meant to be used that way. In his view, nothing is really meant for any particular purpose, and figuring out how to make things useful beyond their intended design is the meaning of life.

Since 2010, Vjeko has been awarded the Microsoft Dynamics NAV MVP. You can find him at his blog "Vjeko.com - ideas in the cloud".

Yannick (a Microsoft 365 & Business Applications MVP) was born and raised in SharePoint, starting his career in 2011 when SharePoint 2010 was still new and shiny. The changing reality of the cloud made him expand his knowledge to the whole of Microsoft 365, Azure, and Power Platform. He is a Managing Partner and Cloud Solution Architect at Qubix, a Belgium-based consultancy firm, responsible for the technical underpinnings of products and solutions. Problem-solving and development are his passions, and he is still working day-to-day with code. He always asks the important questions: How does it work? What do you want to achieve? Does it have an API? Do we really need development for this? Where's the coffee?
