Businesses of all sizes find themselves at the intersection of innovation and tradition.

And they choose to embrace innovation rather than stand still and fall behind. In an era of rapid technological advancement and ever-changing regulations, businesses of all sizes must adapt to stay competitive.

PYMNTS tracks the latest advances shaping business-to-business (B2B) transactions, from the importance of small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) and the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI), to the power of FinTech partnerships.

SMEs and the growth spurt

Small businesses have long been the backbone of the global economy. Recent developments highlight the importance of this segment, with large financial institutions and technology companies focusing more on SMEs.

And when it comes to reinventing SME payments and making them an engine of growth, Lorenzo Soriano by Teresasenior vice president of merchant services at American Express (Amex) only has one piece of advice.

“Automate, automate, automate,” he told PYMNTS in a recent conversation focused on results from the last “B2B and Digital Payments Tracker® Series”, which was produced by PYMNTS Intelligence in collaboration with American Express. “The right automation solutionor the right partner, can help businesses overcome their current payment challenges and see tangible benefits.

Elsewhere, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) requiring lenders to collect demographic information on small business borrowers has cleared another legal hurdle after a federal judge rejected an industry-backed challenge that claimed the rule’s data collection method was imperfect. reported Monday (August 26).

The growing role of AI

AI is far from the futuristic concept it once was. Technology is now a reality that is reshaping industries at every level.

Nvidia Tuesday (August 27) introduced Pre-trained, customizable AI workflows that will provide a “quick start” for enterprise developers building AI applications using one or more AI agents. “The enterprise AI wave is here” Jensen Huangfounder and CEO of Nvidia, said in the release.

According to the report, 75% of organizations still use paper checks, despite their high costs and inefficiency. Manual check processing results in slower transactions, increased risk of errors, and longer DSO, which harms a business’s cash flow and financial stability.
