(Nasdaq: EXFY), the financial management super app for expenses and corporate cards, today announced that its chat-based platform, New Expensify, has been selected by SaaStr as the featured conference networking tool for 10,000+ attendees.\n\n\nSaaStr Annual, taking place from September 6-8 in San Mateo, is one of the world’s largest tech conferences, and with it comes a number of speaking sessions, sponsors, and events. The SaaStr team has chosen to use New Expensify as its preferred chat and networking tool for its powerful community-building platform and ability to connect its 10,000+ attendees with each other, event speakers, and organizers, all through the Chat feature of the New Expensify app.\n\n\nNew Expensify’s Chat feature enables attendees to:\n\n\n\nChat with each other one-on-one before SaaStr starts to make early intros or plan meetings\n\n\n\nShare fun updates, pictures, or post-conference plans in a central #social room\n\n\n\nGet a realtime feed of conference announcements in a central #announce room\n\n\n\nAsk questions and engage with speakers directly in keynote and session-specific chat rooms\n\n\n\nStay connected long after the conference is over to nurture industry-centric communities built during the event\n\n\n\n“In the past, our SaaStr Events conference app was lacking a viable way for attendees to connect with one another before and particularly during the event,” says Amelia Ibarra, SVP at SaaStr. “We love that with New Expensify, our SaaStr community of attendees have a place to chat, gather and share knowledge, experiences, and photos from the event, as well as make plans to meet up again. Our community is at the heart of anything we do for SaaStr, and we know New Expensify will have a big hand in making sure our attendees and community can continue to stay connected even after the event is done.”\n\n\nWhile SaaStr is the biggest tech conference to select New Expensify as its preferred networking tool, Expensify has rolled out New Expensify at a number of events this year already, including ExpensiCon, Scaling New Heights, and CalCPA Leadership Council Meeting, as well as React Native EU being held in Pola...
