About Session

Finance is no longer just about reporting the numbers. Today’s finance leaders are expected to shape strategy, drive growth and take greater ownership of technology, while still delivering accuracy and control. But most finance infrastructure was built for a much narrower job.In this session, industry leaders explores the gap between what finance teams are expected to deliver and what their systems make possible. Drawing on Perk’s move to a unified travel and spend platform, we’ll look at how connected technology and AI can reduce operational work, close visibility gaps and give finance room to lead, while keeping human judgement central.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand how the finance function is evolving and why many existing systems haven’t kept up.
  • Learn to identify the blind spots created when data, approvals and visibility sit across disconnected systems.
  • See how connected technology and AI can take on more operational work while keeping human judgement at the centre of the decisions that matter.
