Despite the volatile backdrop, huge strides were made in 2020 in terms of technology adoption, process modernization and future of work strategies. Finance departments did a tremendous job mitigating the impact of the pandemic by negotiating discounts and accelerating digital transformation projects, but as we emerge into a brave new world how can organizations ensure their business not just recovers, but thrives and capitalizes on the digital gains made during Covid.
SSON has created this event to bring together finance leaders from across the region to share best-practice and discuss how to evolve business models for a post-crisis future. Our expert speakers will be discussing how to maximize your investment in intelligent automation, digitizing your data to generate insight, improving working capital and creating end-to-end processes for better governance, productivity and easier digital transformation. The result will be an agile organization, more resilient and better placed to tackle any future crisis and positioned for growth.
