Looking Ahead: Sage Partner Events, AI Reality Checks, and Predictions

In this episode, Doug, Matt, and Emily look ahead to Sage’s Partner Summit in Orlando and what they expect as the company starts fiscal year 2026.

They talk AI as it’s actually used versus how it’s sold, possible go-to-market shifts, and price sensitivity in uncertain economic times. They also ask why Sage is flooding construction conferences, including the Intacct and Procore relationship.

There’s a dedicated stretch on Sage Future for Partners, plus Copilot, a negotiation session at that event, and the rest of the Sage event calendar.

Matt and Emily each make a bold prediction about what might get announced behind closed doors. They say they’ll be back to see who was right. Stick around for the dad jokes.
