The event brought together innovators, customers, and partners from across the region, setting the stage for Docusign's vision to transform how organizations create, negotiate, and manage agreements in today's digital-first economy.

"With Docusign Iris and our new AI Contract Agents, we're empowering businesses acrossAsia-Pacificto achieve measurable improvements—from faster deal cycles to stronger compliance and enhanced customer experiences,"saidAllan Thygesen, Chief Executive Officer, Docusign."In a fast-growing yet highly complex region, where diverse cross-border regulations and compliance requirements can slow progress, agentic AI in intelligent agreement management will help organizations move faster and more efficiently to unlock growth."

The Business Imperative for Agreement Management

Inefficient processes across outdated or disconnected systems lead to delays, compliance risks, and missed opportunities, costing organisations globally an estimatedUS$2 trillion(S$2.5 trillion)in lost value annually, withAsia Pacificalone accounting for approximatelyUS$600 billion(S$810 billion).

According to the latestOptimising Agreement Managementreport by Docusign and Deloitte,77%of high-performing organisations credit effective agreement management with driving success in core business areas, highlighting the strategic importance of modernizing these processes. Leaders surveyed in the study view AI as critical to this transformation, with AI-enabled agreement tools reducing deal delays by29%in sales, cutting contract compliance risks by21%, and saving21% of time in procurement workflows.

Delivering Speed, Accuracy and Transparency Throughout the Agreement Lifecycle

Docusign Iris also brings a suite of new features designed to streamline and enhance every stage of the agreement lifecycle, from contract creation to signing and management.

• Agreement Desk (April 2026): A centralized collaboration hub where teams can quickly submit contract requests and track progress in real time. Integrated with AI-Assisted Review, teams can use Docusign Iris to identify risky clauses and suggest policy-aligned language directly with Microsoft Word, enabling faster negotiations, quicker deal closures, and smoother supplier onboarding.
• Workspaces (availableDecember 2025): A secure, all-in-one environment where signers can access documents and tasks for multi-step agreements (e.g., buying a home or opening a bank account) without juggling email chains or scattered forms. This leads to faster closings, improved customer experiences and stronger business relationships.
• Enhancements to Navigator (available now for all English-speaking countries): Navigator now provides advanced contract insights, dashboards, notifications and reporting powered by Iris, helping businesses monitor obligations and identify risks or opportunities more effectively. Crucial details such as expiration dates, involved parties, and contract types are now surfaced and searchable, a capability that was not previously possible. Businesses can upload contracts, highlight the relevant terms, and have them automatically surfaced in Navigator without the need for coding or developers. In the future, Navigator will also allow businesses to define their own custom terms (e.g., loyalty program details or rental information), further extending its flexibility.

At the same time, Docusign and Deloitte's report highlights significant variation in agreement management maturity across the region. WhileSingaporeleads on digital trust—with 89% of local business leaders confident in its agreement governance—it trails markets likeJapanandAustraliaby more than 25 percentage points in AI-driven contract creation maturity. This points to an opportunity for Singaporean businesses to accelerate automation and modernize early-stage workflows to stay competitive.

"Across Asia, business leaders increasingly recognize that agreement processes are no longer inconsequential administrative tasks but are instead emerging as strategic levers for improving efficiency, compliance, and business growth throughout  the agreement lifecycle,"said Kartik Krishnamurthy, Vice President,Asiaat Docusign."The advancement of Docusign Iris and the rollout of enhanced AI-powered features at this year's Momentum Singapore reflect our commitment to the region, as we help businesses close the gap and keep pace with global standards in AI-driven contract creation and security."
