We co-create and innovate

Ledgy is committed to customer-centric product development, working as an agile partner for our customers to evolve with them and their needs. Our CAB is central to this strategy, lending their expertise on a regular basis to explore new product possibilities, give feedback on our product roadmap, participate in early beta feature testing, and more.

We believe collaboration is key to spark innovation and deliver the best software and experience for our users. Hear directly from our CAB members on how they use Ledgy to make their equity work:

CAB Meetings & Benefits

The programme consists of quarterly meetings, which take place primarily online. The quarterly online meetings will be supported by a Slack channel, where members are encouraged to stay in contact with each other and our Leadership team, for an opportunity to take a look behind the scenes at Ledgy and to establish business contacts across Europe.

In addition, our CAB members are flown out once per year to meet in person and to participate in an exclusive CAB workshop. During the workshop, strategic developments and current equity trends are discussed. In 2023, the workshop was followed by a half day, customer-facing Ledgy conference, which the CAB members attended.
