Light and GoGlobal today announce a partnership combining Light's agentic finance platform with GoGlobal's deep local accounting, tax and regulatory expertise, giving businesses a more connected way to manage the financial and operational demands of international growth.
One financial picture. Expertise in each market.
Entering a new market changes payment cycles, operating costs and local reporting obligations. Finance teams need to understand the cash required for expansion and bring each new entity into a consistent group close. These challenges can be particularly acute in industries like medtech, a joint focus area, where development spending and customer payment terms add another layer of financial complexity.
Light brings a shared financial foundation across entities, with invoicing, receivables and reporting connected to the ledger and automation to reduce routine work. GoGlobal complements Light's technology with the on-the-ground expertise needed to establish and manage local operations, helping companies meet market-specific requirements across their international footprint.
“Growing internationally means navigating different accounting, tax and regulatory requirements in every market. By combining Light’s technology with GoGlobal’s local expertise, we help businesses manage that complexity so their teams can focus on growing the business.”
With operations across more than 85 countries, GoGlobal offers the scale and geographic coverage to support Light's customers as they enter new markets, manage established operations and adapt their international footprint over time.
“GoGlobal combines deep accounting and tax expertise with a truly global organisation. That’s a perfect fit for Light’s ambitions, and for the companies building their businesses on our platform.”
To kick off the partnership, Light and GoGlobal are hosting two joint events in November on a question facing growing businesses: how can finance support more growth without costs and workload rising at the same rate?
The cash test for your 2027 growth plans
Webinar · 12 November 2026 · 15:00 CET
On 12 November 2026, Light and GoGlobal will host a panel of CFOs to examine a question every expansion budget must answer: can the business fund the gap between committing capital and collecting cash?
The discussion covers payment cycles, working capital and the full cost of entering a new market. GoGlobal will walk through the local accounting and tax obligations that come with each new country, and Light will show how finance teams keep group cash visible across every entity and shorten the time from invoice to payment as they expand.
Speakers:
- Chris Bell, former CFO turned Product Manager at Light
- Claudia Nunes, Director of International Operations at GoGlobal
Join the webinar at 15:00 CET on 12 November 2026.
