Join Us for an Exclusive Executive Luncheon & Discussion
The New Rules of Enterprise Spend
Wednesday, 24th June 2026 · 11:30 MYT
The Ortus Club, alongside our host SAP, would like to invite you to a closed-door roundtable luncheon bringing together senior Finance, HR, and IT leaders from across Kuala Lumpur. Over an unhurried lunch in a relaxed, confidential setting, you'll join a small group of peers for candid, off-the-record conversation — no presentations, no pitches, just meaningful exchange between leaders navigating the same challenges. Expect excellent food, sharp thinking, and the kind of discussion that's hard to find anywhere else.
The Topic
The New Rules of Enterprise Spend
As AI adoption accelerates, employee spend has become a leadership issue rather than an operational one. CFOs and CIOs are being asked to move faster, tighten controls, and reduce exposure — all while enabling a workforce that expects flexibility.
Yet spend remains fragmented across systems, policies, and teams. That fragmentation creates blind spots, where risk hides, controls weaken, and decisions slow down. AI is changing the equation — not by replacing finance teams, but by embedding policy, governance, and intelligence directly into how employees spend. The question is no longer whether this shift will happen, but who leads it, and who absorbs the risk of lagging behind.
This roundtable brings senior finance and technology leaders together to examine how intelligent spend management strengthens governance, sharpens decision confidence, and future-proofs finance operations.
Discussion themes include:
Where does employee spend create the greatest unseen risk today?
How can AI improve control and compliance without slowing the business?
What does strong AI-led spend governance look like at the executive level?
