Netgain Continues to Reshape Accounting with AI, Previewing a New Consolidation Engine at Its Second Annual Accounting Summit

Consolidations by Netgain is the latest in a steady run of releases built to make the accountant’s workflow easier

DENVER, June 24, 2026  /PRNewswire/ — Netgain, the company powering the next generation of accounting professionals, gathered more than 200 accounting professionals in Denver on June 18 for its Second Annual Netgain Accounting Summit. The throughline of the day was simple: accounting has reached a new frontier, and the question is no longer whether accountants should use AI, but how to use it well.

Netgain used the stage to preview its newest product, an AI-native consolidation engine designed to take one of accounting’s most painful workflows off the spreadsheet. Accounting leaders who want to help shape the product can request a demo to learn about joining the first beta cohort.

Eight years in, still building for accountants

Netgain was founded on a simple idea: accountants should spend less time fighting their tools and more time on the work only they can do. Eight years and fifteen products later, that has not changed. What has changed is the pace. AI is letting the team remove manual, repetitive work faster than ever, and each new release follows the same pattern that has defined every turning point in the profession, from double-entry bookkeeping to the spreadsheet to cloud ERP: keep the purpose intact, and take the grind out of getting there.

“This is the most exciting time to be an accountant in decades,” said Adam Riches, CPA, CEO and Founder of Netgain. “The teams that learn to use AI well are going to spend less time hunting through data and more time on the judgment only they can provide. Helping them get there is the whole point of what we are doing.”

Closing the consolidation gap

Many accounting teams hit a wall when it comes to consolidations. Real ownership structures, including investments and non-controlling interest, alternate hierarchies, and high subsidiary counts, are hard to model.

“Consolidation is one of the last places accounting teams still fall back on spreadsheets, and it shows up at every single close,” said Chis Miller, CPA, MBA, CMPA, SVP of Product Strategy and Founder of Netgain. “We are building a Consolidations Engine to handle the hard parts the right way, and we want a first cohort of accountants in the room with us while we do it.”

The product is in active development, and Netgain is enrolling beta customers and partners who want to lead the way. Interested teams can request a demo to learn more about being part of the first cohort to shape it.

What accounting professionals took home

True to its first year, the Summit was built as a working session designed to provide immediate benefit to attendees. It opened with a keynote from Netgain CEO and Founder Adam Riches, CPA, on where AI is taking the profession, the session in which Consolidations by Netgain was previewed. That practical tone carried through everything that followed. Sessions led by accounting experts traded theory for tactics attendees could take home, from tightening the monthly close and fixing AP bottlenecks to optimizing financial workflows and unlocking AI software capabilities.

The peer-to-peer exchange was just as valuable. Roundtable discussions gave accounting leaders a candid space to compare notes with others doing the same work, on topics like shortening the close, scaling through acquisitions, and putting AI to work in accounting. The day closed with a motivational keynote from Olympic gold medalist Connor Fields, whose story of pushing through serious adversity struck a chord with the moment accounting is in today: the hardest challenges often set up the biggest breakthroughs.

“Some of the best moments had nothing to do with a slide deck,” said Nathan Smart, CPA, President and Founder of Netgain. “This is a chance for accountants to step away from the grind and learn from peers who do exactly what they do. That kind of conversation is hard to find back at your desk.”

The momentum continues

Building on a strong second year, Netgain is already turning its attention to 2027. Planning for next year’s Summit is underway, and details on dates, location, and registration will be shared as they are confirmed.

None of this would have been possible without this year’s sponsors, whose support reflects the strength of the community around the event. Netgain extends its thanks to RSM, CrossCountry Consulting, Rocky Mountain NetSuite User Group, Charted, SuiteCentral, Eide Bailly, Salora ERP, Wiss, Blue-Collar, Armanino, and Concentrus.

MARRAKECH, Morocco, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The International Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (IAACA), an independent and non-political anti-corruption organisation with over 190 member anti-corruption authorities (ACAs) worldwide, will co-host IAACA Annual Conference 2026 in Marrakech, Morocco next month together with the Independent Commission Against Corruption of Hong Kong, China (ICAC) and the National Authority for Probity, Prevention and Fight Against Corruption of Morocco (INPPLC) to chart a path for the global graft fight and explore cutting-edge approaches to tackle emerging corruption challenges.

Themed “Building on 20 Years of Legacy: Drawing Strength from the Past, Guarding Global Integrity for the Future”, the international event will not only mark the 20th anniversary of the IAACA, but also provide a dynamic forum for IAACA members to exchange insights and enhance co-operation.

Calling on international counterparts to participate in the conference scheduled for November 25, IAACA President Mr Woo Ying-ming, who also serves as ICAC Commissioner, said that “As the IAACA marks its 20th anniversary, the conference will bring together global anti-corruption community at a pivotal moment for collective action. I anticipate that the valuable insights and new approaches generated through the international synergy will chart a resilient strategic path for us to navigate integrity risks and draw strength from our shared legacy to guard global integrity for generations to come.”

During the conference, renowned international experts from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), Basel Institute on Governance, the International Anti-Corruption Academy, and global anti-corruption and law enforcement agencies and institutions will shed light on harnessing artificial intelligence in the fight against corruption, safeguarding integrity within global climate and biodiversity frameworks and analysing global corruption measurement and systemic effectiveness.

Following the conference, the ICAC, the INPPLC, the IAACA and the UNODC will co-organise a training seminar on leveraging AI in combating corruption.

While the ICAC and INPPLC will share how AI and new technology can reshape the future of anti-graft enforcement and corruption prevention, the UNODC will provide a global perspective on using AI models in financial crime investigations and addressing the operational relevance, legal robustness and adaptability across jurisdictions.

Viettel moves 100 million subscribers to home-grown cloud-native charging in three months – with zero downtime

HANOI, Vietnam, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Viettel High Technology Industries Corporation (Viettel High Tech), part of Viettel Group, has migrated more than 100 million subscribers and some 5,000 tariff plans at Viettel, Vietnam’s largest mobile operator, to vOCS 4.0, its in-house cloud-native charging system. The three-month cutover ran on a live national network with no service disruption.

Replacing a charging system is one of the riskiest projects an operator can undertake, which is why many stick with legacy platforms. Viettel High Tech reduced the risk through real-time data synchronization, parallel running and a phased cutover, with instant rollback at every stage.

The project won the Telecom Review Excellence Awards 2026 prize for Best Technology Deployment in Asia, a first for a Vietnamese company.

What it means for operators:

Scale: more than 300,000 transactions per second at latency below 5 milliseconds, across 2G–5G and fixed services on one platformLower cost: up to 50% less hardware investment than the previous generation, by sharing infrastructure with the networkAgility: new tariff plans in hours instead of days, new features three times faster and deployments about 30% fasterResilience: two active data centers about 2,000 km apart and automatic recovery in under two minutes

Viettel High Tech developed every core layer in-house, from a telecom-grade cloud-native platform and NFV-MANO orchestration to real-time charging, subscriber and balance management.

“Passing rigorous tests of real-time self-diagnosis and self-recovery is what allows an operator to keep its promise of 24/7 service to customers,” said Luu Manh Ha, CEO of Viettel Networks, which operates the system on Viettel’s network in Vietnam. “Above all, owning the charging system means an operator is not dependent on foreign vendors – it safeguards digital sovereignty and preserves business flexibility.”

“The charging system is where an operator’s business strategy turns into revenue in real time,” said Nguyen Minh Quang, CEO of Viettel High Tech. “We believe vOCS 4.0 is ready to help operators worldwide capture the value of 5G and digital services.”

In 2017, vOCS 4.0’s predecessor, vOCS 3.0, replaced a foreign vendor’s platform for 90 million Viettel subscribers. Across both generations, vOCS serves more than 220 million subscribers in 11 countries. Viettel High Tech now offers vOCS 4.0 to operators worldwide.
