What is the Finance Leadership Summit

As the finance function moves further into the digital era the role of Chief Financial Officer has gone through some major changes since its inception. Today, the role of the CFO has become even more strategic, as organisations increasingly rely on the financial and strategic prowess of their most senior financial leaders.
As companies face increasing competition and ongoing change, they expect finance to leverage technology and turn data into insights they can use to guide strategy and support decision-making.

The Finance Leadership Summit will ensure you meet like-minded finance professionals who are developing their functions to help drive not only financial success, but also advanced insight and partnering opportunities.

Aspiring and progressive financial professionals across all sectors and financial leaders seeking to future proof their organisations through talent management and talent retention.
