What to Watch at Odoo Experience 2026
Odoo 20 and the Opening Keynote
Odoo founder and CEO Fabien Pinckaers is scheduled to introduce Odoo 20 during the opening keynote, followed by a second keynote session the next morning. These presentations will give attendees an overview of the new version before they explore individual applications in more focused talks.
Businesses considering an upgrade can use the announcements to identify developments for further assessment, including their availability and compatibility with existing customisations and integrations.
For a closer look at expected developments and preparation considerations, read our Odoo 20 preview and preparation guide.
Functional Sessions and Implementation Lessons
The programme covers accounting, inventory, manufacturing, eCommerce, marketing and AI, combining application-focused sessions with lessons from implementation projects.
Two sessions worth considering are:
Session | Relevant audience |
Inventory valuation with focus on Perpetual Accounting | Finance and inventory teams examining the relationship between stock valuation and accounting |
The cost of poor analysis: Lessons learned from real Odoo projects | Project owners and business analysts reviewing requirements and implementation planning |
Other scheduled topics include production planning and data imports. Use the agenda to select sessions that match your responsibilities and the processes you want to understand.
Exhibitors and Conversations with Specialists
The exhibition brings together companies working within the Odoo ecosystem, creating opportunities to explore solutions, meet potential partners and discuss implementation services.
For businesses assessing an ERP project, conversations with specialists can help clarify the options available for a particular requirement. Bring a brief description of your current process and the systems involved so the discussion can move beyond a general product introduction.
Specialist Training Before the Conference
The separately ticketed masterclasses take place on 22–23 September, before the main event. The training programme includes subjects such as Accounting, Inventory, Studio, Odoo development, eCommerce and marketing, AI, and scaling with Odoo.sh.
Why the Event Matters for Businesses in Malaysia and APAC
For businesses in Malaysia and across APAC, the event offers a useful opportunity to explore how Odoo supports different operating models. The priorities below can help teams identify the sessions most relevant to their industry and organisational structure:
Business context | Useful evaluation focus |
Manufacturing | Connections between purchasing, material availability, production and costing |
Retail and eCommerce | Coordination between POS, online orders, stock and fulfilment |
Professional services | Continuity from sales commitments to project delivery, time tracking and billing |
Multi-company operations | Shared processes, company-specific controls and reporting requirements |
For Malaysian companies, the next step is to assess how relevant updates fit local accounting, e-Invoice and integration requirements. Companies operating across several markets should also consider which processes can be shared and where country-specific configurations are needed.
