Energise. Innovate. Accelerate.

The COVID-19 situation is accelerating the pace of transformational change within treasury departments, and so this event will focus on both developments in treasury technology but also the wider transformation in terms of people, working attitudes and priorities worldwide.

Treasury is rooted in physical practices, yet the transformation to a digital world is ongoing, with innovative new technologies causing radical change to systems. But transformation goes beyond treasury technology – it’s as much about changing working environments and attitudes that will alter the treasury of the future.

Splitting between the strategic and the operational, topics to be discussed by key speakers throughout the four days of the Festival of Treasury Transformation include: 

– what are the key priorities for treasurers now, and what has changed over the last months?  Is there a ‘new normal’ forming?

– what has the impact of COVID-19 been on ESG and diversity & inclusion?

– what are the working ‘myths’ that have been busted?

– how prepared/robust is treasury in terms of the next crisis?

– the optimisation of current systems vs. the implementation of large strategic projects

– the changing working environment and the role of technology 

– new and innovative solutions coming from the fintech ecosystem

All of these topics will be covered via a focussed mix of keynotes, roundtables and TechTalk-style presentations, all in a virtual live setting. All sessions of the event would be recorded and would be available for watching again only for registered delegates.
