Meetup on the CFO of Tomorrow

 

On 27 May, we gathered for an inspiring morning dedicated to “The CFO of Tomorrow,” hosted by Fintech Belgium in collaboration with AREA42 and Finrack, and proudly supported by AiVidens.

A heartfelt thank you to all the senior finance professionals who joined us. Your engagement, questions, and ideas made the event a powerful exchange of insights and a meaningful step forward in shaping the future of finance.

As we explored how the CFO role is transforming, several key themes emerged:

  • The evolving expectations placed on today’s finance leaders

  • Innovative approaches to corporate financing in uncertain times

  • The impact of Accounts Payable automation on efficiency

  • How Accounts Receivable and revenue management are driving cash flow predictability

  • The strategic value of robust Financial Planning & Analysis tools

  • New ways to empower teams through modern Payroll and Compensation solutions

  • Emerging trends like BNPL for retailers and Supply Order Financing

More than just presentations, the event sparked lively discussions, new connections, and a shared commitment to lead with innovation, agility, and resilience.

Whether you're already transforming your finance function or just beginning the journey, we hope you left with fresh perspectives and practical takeaways to support your growth.
