WHERE SECOND CEOs ARE MADE

The Platform for Trailblazing Finance Leaders to Collaborate, Accelerate Skills and Set the Winning Strategies of 2025

We are on the verge of dramatic change! As we move from a period of economic austerity to a more expansionary fiscal outlook, are we ready to become leaders that dare to challenge the status quo which we have grown and adapted to in the post-2021 macroeconomic environment? What are the core skills that will define the great CFOs of the future? What do we need to invest in today to stay one step ahead in amidst unprecedented developments of autonomous technologies and automation solutions? How will the finance function operate in an increasingly automated world? Are CFOs evolving into the second CEO?

The Exchange is the perfect platform for collaboration and clarity on the state of the finance function, bringing together some of the UK and Europe’s most experienced, exceptional, and senior leaders who are passionate about advancing the next step in the finance journey. In an intimate, closed-door setting, leaders have the opportunity to freely discuss their challenges and share their recent successes, and we can’t wait to welcome the 2025 cohort.

At its core, this event promises to save you months of self-research and networking by providing a packed two-day experience filled with insights, targeted discussion groups and personalised one-to-one meetings with peers and game-changing solutions. The Exchange may be compact, but it’s impactful!

Let us shape the Future of Finance together.

Attendee Feedback

I thought the level of engagement and interest was high in a wonderful venue. Many great and diverse insights provided by participants with stimulating conversations covering strategy, people, technology and processes. This type of event provides a great opportunity to learn from others and for some self reflection.

Very well organised and everyone in the room seemed to be really engaged and interested in the topics. Change is inevitable, I think finance professionals should come to the event as the requirements for accountants in today’s market are meant to address its current challenges.

Really valuable. Opened my eyes to the number of new technology solutions. Also consolidated my thinking about Finance Transformation and how it should be done. Got some great actionable insight into developing business partnering, and made me think a bit broader about what’s going on in Finance.

Really valuable to meet new people, get to know new trends around AI and RPA and also share experiences with others regarding transformation of finance departments.

I found the conference to be hugely beneficial and found many of the speakers Inspirational. I’m going back to my own organisation where we are currently implementing a financial shared service really excited about the future.

Invaluable forward looking view and sharing of experiences.

Good high level insights from different countries and industries, which helps us a lot and gave us new ideas and insights to move forward. Also proof that we're on the right track with our approach.

Overall the conference far exceeded my expectations, but there is lots of room for improvement. The caliber of presenting organisations was excellent.

That was a right balance between high level, startegical approaches presented by different companies and practical, simple examples which can be easily used/adapted in my organization.
