Event Synopsis:

In 2023, CFOs & finance leaders are showing a keen personal interest in cloud transformation initiatives. Although the CFO position is primarily strategic in nature, CFOs generally do not intend to immerse themselves in the nitty-gritty tactical aspects of digitizing their roles. Nevertheless, they do acknowledge its strategic significance. According to a CFO study done by Gartner, the influence of technology-driven transformations, affecting both the finance function and the broader business landscape, is prompting most CFOs to reassess and redefine the roles of technology and finance within the company.


Transformation initiatives, when executed effectively, can streamline operations, eliminate bottlenecks, and improve overall efficiency. This translates to cost savings, increased productivity, and a competitive edge in the market. Businesses that transform are better positioned to leverage innovation. This can involve adopting new cloud-based technologies, exploring novel business models, or even creating disruptive products or services. Such innovation is crucial for sustainable growth.


Embark on a transformation journey with DigitalCFO Asia at this Executive Forum as we hear from CFOs, finance leaders and industry experts about how we can harness cloud-based technologies such as AI, machine learning and advanced analytics, to transform finance processes, accelerate business growth and achieve cloud success.

Learning Points:

  • Strategies for Confidence - Gain insight from CFOs and finance leaders on strategies they employ to effectively manage the finance function and navigate the evolving landscape with a heightened sense of confidence.
  • Technology-Driven Growth - Understand how innovative cloud-based technologies including AI, machine learning and advanced analytics can be harnessed to drive exponential growth for businesses within the SEA region.
  • Transformational Roadmap - Discover a structured transformation journey designed to accelerate business growth, providing you with a clear roadmap to follow in order to achieve sustainable and impactful development.
  • Expanding Boundaries - Explore how these transformative technologies and strategies enable businesses in SEA to expand beyond traditional limits, enabling them to seize opportunities, overcome challenges and achieve unprecedented success in a rapidly changing landscape.
