The importance of communication and collaboration around real time financial data continues to resonate with Australian banks, and we are excited to announce a partnership with leaders in the Australian agri-lending space, National Australia Bank (NAB).

The theme for Fieldays 2017 is ‘leading change’. Leading change is about driving prosperity in New Zealand’s primary sector, and on site this year we’ll be demonstrating how our latest updates and product vision align with the three pillars of this theme - education, innovation and internationalisation.

We are excited to share that Figured is a finalist in the New Zealand Hi Tech Awards in two categories - Emerging Company of the Year and Best Hi Tech Solution for the Agri Tech Sector.

Figured has officially announced its partnership with Farm Credit Services America (FCSAmerica), a leading provider of credit and insurance services to farmers and agribusinesses, based in Omaha Nebraska. For Figured, this partnership is a huge milestone in the emerging company’s progression, and is a significant export opportunity for a New Zealand business of this size.

Two of the New Zealand dairy industry’s biggest names, Fonterra and Livestock Improvement Corporation (LIC), have collaborated to create a new digital farming platform that combines all the key data that farmers need to make faster and smarter decisions using a single dashboard.

We hosted a panel discussion with Figured GM Australia, James Black, Agworld GM, Simon Foley, and AgriWebb Co-Founder, Kevin Baum to talk more about the concept of the ag data ecosystem in Australia.

Figured is pleased to announce that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Commonwealth Bank of Australia to deliver a more efficient financial management solution for Australian farmers. A pilot phase commences from December 2016 to run over the next 12 months, which will initially see 100 Commonwealth Bank agribusiness customers use Figured’s cloud-based accounting software.

Figured is pleased to announce the appointment of Dave Dodds to the role of Chief Executive Officer. Current CEO, Paul Reid, will transition to Chairman of Figured board of directors.

Figured are committed to supporting rural women in our own backyard. We are a proud sponsor of the New Zealand Dairy Women’s Network, a community of women we are dedicated to adding value to the dairying community.
