Book a Meeting with a Basware Expert

Throughout the event, there will be multiple opportunities to engage with Basware experts in a variety of sessions. However, we also recognize the importance of addressing specific topics that are top of mind for you. To facilitate this, we’re offering the option to book dedicated 20-minute sessions with our experts.

Please note that the number of available slots is limited, so we kindly ask that you request meetings with no more than three of our experts. We will do our best to accommodate these requests by matching up diaries where possible. If multiple attendees express interest in the same topic, we may consolidate sessions so that customers with shared interests can connect with the relevant Basware contact together.
