On Wednesday 16th October, at the Royal Society of Medicine in London. We welcomed valued users from over 50 organisations to our conference: The Finance Professional for Tomorrow. Below you can see what people thought of the day along with an overview of the topics we covered.
Dominic truly lived up to his: “mercurially witty” reputation. A financial writer and comedian, who co-hosted Money Pit and is also a published author, delivered a fantastic presentation on The Future of Tax, Work and Money. This was exceptionally well-received by all in attendance.
“Thought it was a well-organised event and great to share and gain more insights especially through networking with your other clients.”Aqilla Conference Delegate
Simon Bull, Chris Tredwell and Varsa Desai presented two sessions that focused on maximising the Aqilla accounting and finance technology:
“The day was really interesting and well organised. It was good to actually be in the room the Aqilla team I interact with and also hear from them how we can optimise our Aqilla usage. It’s also great that our suggestions for ways to make Aqilla more user-friendly will be considered for implementation. All in all, it was a great day that made me feel even more so a part of the network.” Aqilla Conference Delegate
It’s a good reminder of just how little of Aqilla’s features we currently use! – we really need to carve out the time and space to learn how to use it better.”
Where attendees were also able to vote on key developments that they would like to see in future. Topics covered included:
Aqilla’s Industry Research Report: The Finance Professional for Tomorrow where our marketing team presented the key findings of our report that you can find here.
