Sage, a privately owned software development company founded in 1999 and headquartered in the US, employs approximately 1130 people. While known for its broader software offerings, a significant part of its business involves Intacct, a cloud-based financial management software solution targeted at small and medium-sized enterprises.
Sage announced the integration of robotics, such as AMRs and AGVs, into Sage X3 to automate warehouse tasks, increase efficiency, and address labor shortages in distribution. On an unspecified date, the company appointed Damon Scarr as General Manager for Asia Pacific to support growth and innovation objectives in the region. Separately, Jonathon Howell, from Sage Group PLC, was appointed as an independent non-executive director of Whitbread PLC on January 1, 2024, and will chair the audit committee. Sage also partnered with organizers of a business networking event in Cumbria, taking place this week in Carlisle.
