Financial planning and analysis (FP&A) teams don’t budget and forecast the way they once did and that’s an excellent thing. Recently, the trend has been to move away from traditional static planning – which primarily looks to the past to provide limited insights into the future, toward more agile processes based on cloud systems with AI integration. Forward looking organizations are proactively preparing for the future by increasing their ability to make up-to-date, informed decisions to quickly pivot when future industry conditions change. And as AI becomes more relevant, the technology will continue to transform FP&A, allowing CFOs and financial planners to deliver deeper insights to their organizations and prepare for the “what ifs” that come their way. Finance leaders will no longer need to operate solely from gut instinct (a reality for half of CFOs, a Workday survey found) – but instead from real-time, quality data to make informed decisions.This half day event is most suitable to finance and IT professionals with the following needs:

• Transform from traditional forecast/budgeting to modern, AI-enhanced financial planning (scale & grow for the future)

• Understand key evaluation and selection criteria for a modern planning solution (Finance & IT team play a pivotal role)

• Learn how other are doing the same (via sharing from their FP&A transformation journey)
