Last week, Calibrate travelled to the Odoo Partner Day 2026, attended by Andy, Anne, and fellow Odoo partners from across Europe. The event highlighted both the rapid growth of the Odoo ecosystem and the exciting future ahead.
Held in Belgium at the Odoo HQ, this year’s Partner Day brought together a thriving and expanding partner network, now more than double the size compared to just 12 months ago. The energy throughout the event reflected a shared ambition to innovate, collaborate, and deliver even greater value to our customers.
AI in Odoo 20: Smarter Business Automation
A key theme from Odoo Partner Day 2026 was the evolution of Artificial Intelligence within Odoo. Rather than following trends, Odoo is embedding AI strategically across its platform, supported by its SH hosting model and open architecture.
Odoo 20 Planning Module: A Game Changer for Service Companies
Service-based businesses can expect significant improvements with the new Planning module in Odoo 20, scheduled for release in September.
With Field Service functionality transitioning into Planning, businesses will benefit from:
- Improved job and resource coordination
- Greater operational visibility
- More efficient workforce scheduling
This marks a major step forward in how Odoo supports service management and operational efficiency.
UK Market Growth & Making Tax Digital (MTD)
Odoo continues to invest heavily in the UK and Ireland markets, with increased visibility through taxi and billboard advertising campaigns. This ongoing commitment reinforces Odoo’s long-term growth strategy in the region.
Another important update is the progress on Making Tax Digital (MTD) for sole traders, which is expected to be available soon, creating new opportunities for businesses to stay compliant while leveraging Odoo’s accounting capabilities.
Key Partner Discussions & Future Initiatives
Odoo Partner Day 2026 also provided a valuable platform for collaboration and alignment across partners. Key discussion topics included:
- Performance insights and benchmarking
- Market-focused product updates
- New marketing and sales initiatives
- Key challenges and emerging opportunities
- Open and constructive partner feedback
Additional updates included improvements to Odoo business shows, upcoming UK & Ireland partner meetings, WhatsApp community reactivation, and localisation efforts focused on MTD.
ERP is Evolving Beyond the Back Office
One of the biggest takeaways from the event is that ERP systems like Odoo are no longer just back-office tools. They are becoming central business platforms—enabling companies to stay connected, scalable, and efficient.
With continued advancements in AI, usability, and integration, Odoo is positioning itself at the forefront of modern ERP innovation.
The event concluded with informal networking and celebrations, capping off an inspiring and productive day.
The Odoo Partner team were brilliant, with special thanks to Ana, Waleed, Bastien, Anna, Marie, Antoine, Carlos, Victor, Donat, Caterina, and the Expert Manufacturing team for their support, insight, and contribution to a truly memorable event.
