Virtual Session on Role of CFOs in New Digital Era

The current pandemic has demonstrated the importance of digitalization and how it has enabled businesses to continue their operations by providing resilience, adaptability, and security. Companies across regions and industries are embracing digital transformation driven by cloud computing, enterprise mobility and cyber security.

As futurists, CFOs are now leading automation and digitization to determine how their organization can benefit from emerging technologies. The evolution of intelligent automation supported by advances in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has an unprecedented impact on the finance function. These enhancements reduce cost and human effort and help free employee time to perform more strategic work. CFOs need to build the right team with the proper mix of skills relevant in today’s hyper-digital, ever-evolving workforce.

With the above backdrop, ASSOCHAM’s National Council for CFOs with its Knowledge Partner, Nexdigm, is organizing a Virtual Session on the Role of CFOs in New DigitalEra on Wednesday, 10^th November, 2021 at 3.00 pm IST.

Here are some of the key takeaways that you can expect from the session:

• What is the future of a CFO’s office?
• Experiences of CFOs in coping up with COViD-19
• Next generation technologies having the potential to disrupt the traditional finance function
• Enabling process-related changes surrounding digitization
• Role of ERP in the overall finance function
• Enabling change in culture to support any transformation

We intend to bring together India’s top CFOs in this program to deliberate on how to revive and reinvent the wheel for businesses going forward and get their thoughts on the role CFOs should play in digital transformation. They will also speak about the challenges they faced and the strategies they deployed to safeguard their business, manage cashflow effectively, and share key excerpts from their long-term plans to future-proof the organization and ensure consistent financial growth.
