The accounting profession is at a crossroads. With increasing demand for accounting work, a shrinking talent pool, and 75% of accountants are set to retire in the next decade, the need for efficiency has never been greater. Enter AI Agents: not just a tool for automation, but a catalyst for transformation.

In this closed-door think tank session, Hugh O'Neill, former Finance Director, will lead a peer-driven discussion on how AI is reshaping the future of accounting. Participants will explore how FloQast’s AI-powered solutions are empowering teams to move beyond outdated, manual workflows and into a new era of efficiency, accuracy, and control. From automating repetitive tasks like reconciliations and journal entries to enabling accountants to focus on high-value activities, AI Agents are not replacing accountants—they’re amplifying their impact.

This session will map out the full AI adoption journey, from identifying the right workflows to train your AI Agents, to managing risk, governance, and stakeholder expectations. Together, participants will uncover how to responsibly implement AI, maintain human oversight, and build trust across their organisations. Designed as an open exchange, this session cuts through the noise to deliver actionable insights and a clear path forward.

The future of accounting is here. Are you ready to lead the way?
