The takeaway is clear: international conferences break the echo chamber and open up opportunities you just don't get at home.</p><p><br></p><p>Nat and Sarah are returning as roving reporters and will be recording interviews, behind-the-scenes content, and a podcast episode on the ground. If you're going, they want to hear from you - send them your questions and let them know if you'll be there.</p><p><br></p><p>For attendees, the tips are simple but important - have a plan and a checklist (Nat's specialty), wear comfortable shoes, stay hydrated, get to the gym in the morning (they're doing it this time), and whatever you do, don't skip the wrap party at Mile High Station. You will always find a friend on the dance floor.</p><p><br></p><p>Be sure to be following along on socials when they hit the road early August for Xerocon Denver.</p><p><br></p><p>Follow, subscribe and share with an accountant who needs a space where the real conversations happen.</p><p><br></p><p>☕️ Send us your accounting industry tea and how you are using AI in your firm - <a href=\"mailto:hello@accountantsafterhours.com.au\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">hello@accountantsafterhours.com.au</a> or DM on socials.</p><p>🔗 Episode links:</p><ul><li><a href=\"https://www.xero.com/au/events/xerocon/denver/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Xerocon Denver 2026 agenda and tickets</a></li><li><a href=\"https://xero.jomablue.com/community/32/agenda\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Joma Blue app (conference companion app)</a> </li><li><br></li></ul><p>💬 Join in on the conversation:</p><p>- Follow us on <a href=\"https://instagram.com/accountantsafterhours\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> (it’s where we have the most fun) </p><p>- Like us on <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/accountantsafterhours\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook</a></p><p>- Follow us on <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/company/accountantsafterhours\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn</a></p><p>- Watch and subscribe on <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@AccountantsAfterHours\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube</a></p><p><br></p><p>DISCLAIMER: This podcast is general information only and does not constitute legal or professional advice.
