What is SuiteWorld
SuiteWorld is Oracle NetSuite's largest annual conference and community gathering, taking place October 6-9, 2025, at Caesars Forum in Las Vegas. The event brings together NetSuite users, partners, developers, and experts from around the world to share knowledge, network, and learn about the latest NetSuite developments.
The conference offers both in-person and virtual attendance options through SuiteWorld On Air, making it accessible to professionals who can’t travel to Las Vegas. With thousands of attendees expected, SuiteWorld is the largest gathering of NetSuite professionals in the world. In fact, 90% of past attendees identified a new solution at the conference to solve a business challenge.
The event spans four days with different focuses each day, from technical deep-dives to strategic business sessions. Pre-event training opportunities are also available on October 5-6 for those seeking intensive, hands-on learning experiences.
Why you should attend SuiteWorld and what to expect
SuiteWorld offers accounting professionals and finance teams unique opportunities to gain insights into NetSuite's latest features, especially those related to automation and AI in accounting processes. The conference helps attendees stay current with accounting trends while providing hands-on training that can immediately improve NetSuite skills.
The networking opportunities alone justify attendance, as you'll connect with other finance professionals facing similar challenges and NetSuite experts who can provide solutions. Many attendees report that conversations in hallways and at evening events prove as valuable as formal sessions.
Executive keynotes reveal NetSuite's roadmap and latest innovations, particularly in AI and automation technologies that are transforming accounting workflows. You'll also discover new partner solutions and integrations that can streamline your financial processes and reduce manual work.
Pro tip for finance teams
Many of the most valuable insights at SuiteWorld come from informal conversations with peers who have solved similar accounting challenges. You never know who you’ll meet in the hallway—make sure you allow some breathing room to say hello to fellow conference attendees and maximize spontaneous networking opportunities.
SuiteWorld highlights: What's on the agenda
The SuiteWorld agenda includes keynote presentations, breakout sessions, an expansive Expo Hall, and networking events designed to maximize learning and connection opportunities.
The Expo Hall features over 200 NetSuite partners showcasing solutions for:
- Accounting automation and workflow optimization
- Compliance management and regulatory reporting
- Advanced analytics and financial reporting tools
- Integration platforms and data synchronization solutions
Evening networking events include the Welcome Reception, Industry Receptions, and The Party, all of which provide relaxed environments for building professional relationships.
Breakout sessions and workshops for everyone
SuiteWorld offers hundreds of breakout sessions organized by role, industry, and experience level, with specialized tracks for finance and accounting professionals. Sessions cover topics like financial automation, compliance, reporting, analytics, and how to integrate your close management solution for more efficient month-end close processes.
Hands-on workshops provide practical experience with new NetSuite features under expert guidance, allowing attendees to practice using tools they can immediately implement. These interactive sessions often have limited capacity and fill quickly, making early registration essential.
Technical sessions dive deep into customizations, integrations, and advanced NetSuite functionality that can transform accounting workflows. Many sessions include real-world case studies from companies that have successfully automated manual processes and achieved significant efficiency gains.
Tips for navigating SuiteWorld
SuiteWorld can feel overwhelming with 300+ sessions, thousands of attendees, and numerous networking opportunities competing for your attention. Success at SuiteWorld requires strategic planning, clear objectives, and intentional networking rather than trying to attend every interesting session. The following tips can help first-time and returning attendees maximize their conference experience while avoiding common pitfalls.
1. Set your goals
Define specific objectives before attending SuiteWorld, such as learning about particular NetSuite features, finding solutions to current challenges, or making connections with specific types of professionals. Create a written list of questions you want answered and business problems you hope to solve through conference attendance.
Align your conference activities with your organization's priorities and current pain points. A clear focus will help you choose between competing sessions and networking opportunities when time conflicts arise.
Consider these essential goal categories:
- Feature exploration: Identify specific NetSuite features you want to learn more about
- Problem-solving: List current challenges you hope to find solutions for
- Networking targets: Determine which NetSuite partners or professionals you want to connect with
2. Plan your events agenda
Use the SuiteWorld agenda builder tool to create a personalized schedule based on your goals and role requirements. Register early for limited-capacity sessions, especially hands-on workshops and technical deep-dives that fill up quickly.
Build buffer time between sessions to account for travel between rooms, unexpected conversations, and schedule changes. The Caesars Forum is large, and moving between distant session rooms can take 10-15 minutes.
Essential planning elements include:
- Early registration: Register for high-demand sessions as soon as registration opens
- Mobile app: Download the SuiteWorld mobile app for real-time updates and maps
- Backup options: Have alternative sessions in mind in case your first choices are full
3. Attend hands-on labs and workshops
Prioritize interactive learning opportunities that offer practical experience with NetSuite features under expert guidance. These sessions give more value than lecture-style presentations because you can ask specific questions and practice new skills immediately.
Come prepared with specific scenarios from your organization to work through during the workshop. Take detailed notes on step-by-step processes that you can reference when implementing new features back at work.
4. Familiarize yourself with the venue and mobile app
Study the Caesars Forum layout before arriving to understand the locations of session rooms, dining areas, restrooms, and networking spaces. The venue is large and can be confusing for first-time visitors, so arriving early on your first day will give you time to orient yourself.
Download the official SuiteWorld mobile app for interactive maps, real-time schedule updates, and networking features. The app also provides important announcements and updates attendees on last-minute session changes when needed.
5. Leverage the Expo Hall
The Expo Hall offers opportunities to discover NetSuite partner solutions that can address your specific accounting challenges and workflow inefficiencies. Research exhibitors beforehand to identify who may discuss custom prebuilt iPaaS NetSuite integrations and other solutions relevant to your organization's needs.
Prepare specific questions for relevant vendors rather than collecting generic brochures and promotional materials. Focus on understanding how their solutions integrate with your current NetSuite setup and what implementation would require.
Integration focus for finance teams
The Expo Hall is particularly valuable for discovering accounting automation solutions and integration partners. Many exhibitors offer special SuiteWorld pricing and implementation incentives that aren't available year-round.
6. Schedule breaks and eat well
Avoid scheduling back-to-back sessions throughout the day, as this leads to information overload and prevents meaningful networking conversations. Build in regular breaks to process information, follow up on conversations, and recharge for the next set of sessions.
Plan your meals strategically, as conference food lines can be long and dining areas crowded during peak times. Consider making reservations at nearby restaurants for important networking meals or client meetings.
7. Practice self-care
Wear comfortable business casual attire and supportive shoes, as you'll walk several miles each day navigating between sessions, the Expo Hall, and networking events. Las Vegas conference venues are heavily air-conditioned, so bring layers to adjust to varying temperatures.
Pack snacks and stay hydrated throughout the day to keep your energy levels regulated. The combination of long days, networking events, and information overload can be physically and mentally exhausting.
8. Network effectively
Prepare a brief, compelling introduction about yourself and your organization that you can deliver naturally in various networking situations. Set specific networking goals, such as making five new professional connections or meeting three potential integration partners.
The most valuable networking often happens during informal conversations, so don't limit yourself to formal networking events. Arrive early to sessions, linger afterward for questions, and engage with fellow attendees during breaks.
Effective networking strategies include:
- Elevator pitch: Practice a 30-second introduction that clearly explains your role and organization
- Connection goals: Set specific targets for the number and types of connections you want to make
- Follow-up planning: Bring business cards and have a system for organizing contact information
9. Navigate after-hours events
Evening networking events, including the Welcome Reception, Industry Receptions, and The Party, provide valuable relationship-building opportunities in more relaxed settings. These events often generate the most memorable connections and business opportunities from the conference.
Prioritize industry-specific receptions that align with your business sector, as these tend to attract professionals facing similar challenges. Plan for transportation back to your hotel, especially after The Party, which typically ends late.
10. Prep your NetSuite portal
Review your current NetSuite instance before the conference to identify pain points, customizations, and integration challenges you want to discuss with experts. Understanding why we build in NetSuite can help you ask better questions about potential solutions and optimizations.
Document specific workflows that aren't working efficiently and prepare screenshots of issues to show consultants and partners. This preparation enables more productive conversations and helps you evaluate potential solutions more effectively.
11. Have a clear follow-up strategy
Organize contact information and notes at the end of each day rather than waiting until the conference is over. Create a system for categorizing new contacts by priority level and potential next steps.
Schedule follow-up meetings and calls within one week of returning from SuiteWorld while conversations are still fresh in everyone's memory. Many valuable connections are lost due to delayed follow-up efforts.
12. Document, share, and apply learnings with your team
Take detailed notes during sessions and capture key takeaways that you can share with colleagues who didn't attend. Many presentations provide downloadable materials, but your personal notes about applicability to your organization are most valuable.
Plan a team debrief session within one week of your return to share insights and develop implementation plans for new strategies or features. Create accountability by assigning specific next steps and deadlines for applying conference learnings.
