About
Alaan is a Dubai, UAE-based AI-powered corporate spend management platform — backed by Y Combinator (W23) with $55 million raised including a $48 million Series A in August 2025 led by Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Southeast Asia) after raising $2.5 million seed in March 2022 and $4.5 million pre-Series A in 2023 — providing Middle East and North Africa (MENA) businesses with intelligent corporate card issuance, expense management, and payment workflow automation that automates the end-to-end spend management process from card request to reconciled accounting entry. Founded in 2022 and generating $10 million in annual revenue with 2,000+ customers processing 2.5 million+ transactions, Alaan has achieved profitability and delivered 9x net revenue growth in 2023 and 6x growth in 2024 — making it the fastest-growing corporate finance platform in the MENA region.

About
NetSuite is a San Mateo, California and Austin, Texas-based cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform and business unit of Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) — serving over 40,000 customers in 219 countries and territories with cloud-native financial management, CRM, inventory, supply chain, human capital management, and e-commerce applications designed for small-to-midsize businesses and rapidly growing enterprises that need unified business management software from a single cloud platform. NetSuite was founded in 1998 as NetLedger (one of the world's first cloud-based ERP systems) and acquired by Oracle in 2016 for $9.3 billion. Oracle's platform integration — connecting NetSuite to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Oracle's AI layer — enables NetSuite to leverage hyperscale compute, data warehousing, and generative AI capabilities that independent ERP vendors cannot build at equivalent cost. At SuiteWorld 2025, NetSuite unveiled NetSuite Next, featuring Ask Oracle — a natural language AI assistant enabling business users to search records, navigate workflows, analyze financial data, and trigger business actions across the entire NetSuite dataset through conversational queries rather than menu navigation — advancing toward autonomous AI-driven business management. The Oracle leadership transition (co-CEOs Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia replacing Safra Catz) underscores Oracle's commitment to accelerating cloud product innovation across NetSuite, Oracle Cloud ERP (Fusion), and Oracle's SaaS portfolio.
