KEYNOTE I: Accelerating AI and ML Adoption in Enterprise Business Systems
As organisations accelerate digitalisation with the infusion of AI and ML into their technology landscape, both IT and user organisations are grappling with the many approaches that could be adopted to achieve tangible results. While the attention is focused on front-end sales and customer engagement systems, the opportunity to leverage the vast volumes of quality data in the core enterprise systems is often overlooked. This session examines the proven and in-production use cases in the areas of business planning, financials and HR, to maximise the benefits of enhanced automation and decision-making through AI and ML in the digital core – the enterprise business applications.

PANEL DISCUSSION I: Continuing the Pace of Change: Unlocking Growth Opportunities and Tackling Challenges in 2024
The confluence of rising inflation and interest rate, tensions in geopolitical, regulatory changes, energy security, foreign exchange volatility, supply chain disruptions as well as climate change risk had reshaped CFO’s responsibilities in magnitudes. With things changing rapidly locally and globally, exacerbated by slowing growth, planning for 2024 is certainly not an easy task for finance leaders in Singapore. CFOs are required to drive the necessary transformations, be agile and flexible to capture new opportunities especially with the potential shrinking in customer demands as the world is likely or already in recession.

  • Doing more with less in the growing volatility, uncertainty complexity and ambiguity (VUCA) environment
  • Managing the margin pressures: How can finance leaders help accelerate recovery and ensure long-term sustainable growth post-pandemic?
  • Areas to raise and cut spending in 2024
  • Keeping pace with sustainable financing and ESG efforts in 2024
  • Navigating the changing tax landscape in 2024-2025

KEYNOTE I: Future of Finance – Tackling the Fundamentals
Global megatrends such as economic pressures, digital push, evolving customer landscapes and ever-changing regulatory environments drive the need for change and redefine the shape of the Future of Finance. However, many organisations must address fundamental core elements within the finance functions to embark on transformations, such as handling information, people readiness and adequacy, operating model definition, legacy policies and procedures, key data structures and many more. If not done well, these would eventually lead to transformation failures, misaligned expectations, loss of investments and underachieved benefits.

  • How best to begin your transformation journey
  • Addressing the fundamentals
  • Adopting new-age solutions sustainably to reap the maximum benefit and achieve your transformation goals

PANEL DISCUSSION II: Digital Transformation and Reality Gap: What’s Next Post Digitalisation?
Digital transformation saved many businesses when the pandemic struck. However, in reality, almost no organisation has finished their digitalisation journey. While most organisations are now more digitally mature and they are in a better position to thrive in the post-pandemic era, what businesses are asking for constantly evolves?

  • Advancing digitalisation initiatives vs. traditional work environments
  • Capitalising on digitalisation investment to stay resilient, flexible and efficient amidst escalating costs
  • Keeping up with digital acceleration while ensuring employee’s continuous engagement
  • Planning and sequencing finance transformation activities in 2024
  • Lesson learnt from 2023: What can be done differently in 2024?

Organisations across the globe are increasingly making environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) initiatives a top business priority. Measuring and reporting on ESG goals against plans is complex as it requires data collection from multiple systems and formats.

PANEL DISCUSSION IV: Ensuring Financial Resiliency in the Face of a Potential Economic Downturn
Pritika Bhattacharjee, Vice President, Research in the Gartner Finance Practice says: “CFOs are telling their FP&A leaders that they need to improve the flexibility of budgeting and forecasting, enable faster capital reallocation, and updated financial models to reflect rapidly changing business realities”. With economic activity slowing down, optimising sales is often a challenge for many businesses. As businesses enter into low-growth and high-cost settings, securing collections has become difficult and cash flows get increasingly difficult to predict.

  • Improving working capital and cash flow amidst high-interest rate and squeezing credit to ensure business continuity
  • Transforming cost structures to operate efficiently and balance fluctuations
  • Creating more agile, scalable and flexible FP&A
  • Optimising business decisions and cash flows with AI/ML-driven scenario planning
  • Rolling forecasts and scenario planning to protect free cash flows and reserves

CLOSING KEYNOTE: Generative AI for Business in 2024
Excitement around Generative AI (GenAI) is palpable, and executives rightfully want to move ahead with thoughtful and intentional speed. In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, the focus on cutting-edge GenAI is dominating the conversation. However, it is important to remember that GenAI is not a silver bullet, and it is not always the right tool for the job. It can be easy to forget the role and value that “traditional AI” and legacy tech products that enterprises already have and continue to provide for the business.

  • How GenAI is reshaping innovation
  • The benefits and limitations of GenAI
  • Best practices in matching the right tech tools to the problem/opportunity
