Why should I attend?

In a world that’s constantly evolving, you need to prepare your business to adapt to what comes next. And even though no one knows exactly what the future of their business will look like, we do know the best partner to help you ‘move beyond’. It’s time to move beyond the past few years of disruption, move beyond static legacy systems and move beyond the competition.

Finance

Join us to learn why finance needs the right data, technology and talent to be successful. We’ll set out how the right data strategy can increase your organisational agility; how innovative procurement teams use intuitive, cloud-based technology to contain costs, optimise performance and mitigate risk; and how we can enable your finance function to become valued partners to the business.

Human Resources

From engaging employees to optimising the workforce, HR leaders are at the centre of change. Join us to learn how we can help you address your most pressing challenges. We’ll be tackling a number of topics, including the evolution of work, skills-based people strategies, and how an employee experience that empowers every individual is critical.

Technology

With immense change, success depends on IT and business collaboration and agility. Join us to explore how we’ve helped our customers to strengthen the CIO-CFO relationship with a data-driven strategy, and how you can make work more personal by building a modern employee experience.
