Cirque du Soleil transforms finance operations with SAP Business AI, automating invoices and enhancing supplier experiences.
Creativity meets intelligence in Cirque du Soleil’s journey with SAP. Known for reimagining live entertainment, Cirque du Soleil also innovates behind the scenes—streamlining operations and scaling global finance processes with SAP Business AI.
With more than 4,000 employees and 50 shows running worldwide, Cirque du Soleil needed a faster, smarter way to manage complex supplier relationships and financial transactions. The company adopted the AI Invoice Assistant, powered by SAP Business AI, to simplify invoice processing, reduce manual workloads, and deliver faster response times with multilingual support.
Now, finance teams can focus on strategic work while automation handles repetitive tasks—improving accuracy, consistency, and supplier satisfaction. With SAP Business AI, Cirque du Soleil has achieved new levels of operational agility, enabling them to continue inspiring audiences through innovation both on and off the stage.
“AI is helping us simplify, scale, and automate,” says Marianne LaRochelle, Vice President of Marketing, Cirque du Soleil. “With SAP, we’re embracing the next chapter of intelligent business.”
This partnership demonstrates how SAP Business AI integrates seamlessly into enterprise processes, combining intelligence with trusted business data. From finance and procurement to HR and supply chain, SAP helps organizations work smarter, faster, and more creatively.
