Data is everywhere chief financial officers (CFOs) look these days. Senior finance leaders have more data in front of them than ever before—with insights to drive financial growth, disrupt sales, and transform customer experiences often hiding in plain sight. All the while, the roles of finance leaders are evolving. Once economic guardians, they’re now being called on to take their data and drive digital transformation across business models—financial, operational, and organizational.
To maximize their data’s value and thrive in the face of change, finance teams need to bring the future into focus. That’s why we’re excited to invite you to Finance Reimagined, a digital event on February 23 for forward-thinking CFOs and senior finance leaders. Register now for the Finance Reimagined event for an inside look at the latest CFO trends transforming finance, with strategic guidance for senior leaders who want to understand the forces shaping their future.
See what’s ahead for finance-first innovation
Finance Reimagined is different than other CFO events, with its exclusive content on financial analysis and reporting, strategy and forecasting, business process automation, and compliance and risk management. You’ll discover the best practices and top priorities that leading CFOs are thinking about and have a chance to ask your questions about the future of finance during the live Q&A chat. We’ve lined up experts from Microsoft, industry changemakers, and sessions from EY, PwC, and Accenture to help you:
