Highlights from aim10x Europe 2026 and the business value of APEX

Nucleus attended aim10x Europe 2026 in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where supply chain management software vendor o9 Solutions outlined its vision for helping organizations navigate increasingly complex and interconnected business environments through the continued evolution of its Enterprise Knowledge Graph (EKG) and its new APEX framework, which is scheduled to become generally available for customers in September 2026. Building on its existing planning platform offerings, o9 Solutions is positioning APEX as a framework for continuous decision improvement, combining enterprise context, AI-driven reasoning, performance analysis, business simulations, and organizational enablement to help organizations better understand business outcomes, evaluate future scenarios, and improve decision-making across the enterprise. Nucleus believes these investments reflect a broader shift across the planning software market as organizations move beyond traditional forecasting, planning, and optimization toward technologies that help them understand what happened, why it happened, what is likely to happen next, and what actions should be taken to drive measurable business outcomes for customers.
