Oracle NetSuite on How AI-Native ERP Is Redefining Business Operations
In this session, Brian Chess, SVP of AI, Product, and Technology at NetSuite, will explore how AI is changing the role of ERP from a system of record into an intelligent operating system for business. He will discuss why the next generation of ERP must be AI-native, how embedded intelligence can help organizations move from manual workflows to autonomous operations, and what this shift means for finance teams, operators, executives, and growing companies. Rather than treating AI as a feature layer, Brian will explain why AI must be woven into the core of business applications — connecting data, context, workflows, and action. The conversation will examine the rise of agentic systems, AI-assisted decision-making, autonomous close, intelligent payments, real-time business insights, and the future of work inside ERP.
