Why be a speaker?

Visibility in the ICV community and the finance ecosystem. Exchange with practitioners, decision-makers and thought leaders. Stage for use cases, methods, tools and learnings. Interactive format in the metaverse: more dialog, more proximity, more experience.

We are looking for YOU!

Do you work in finance, controlling or risk – or in sustainability, strategy or geopolitics related to finance/controlling/risk – and do you focus on AI? Or are you a data scientist, data engineer or analytics/BI expert and want to show how data & AI are changing commercial management? Then we are looking for you: with ideas, experience, projects and perspectives.

What the content is about

We are looking for contributions that create clarity, provide practical benefits and demonstrate experience – including lessons learned. How is AI changing the commercial management of companies? How can the opportunities and risks of AI be best utilized? How is the world of work in finance & controlling changing? What role do controllers and data teams play in this new reality?
