The Digital North American FP&A Circle
From Analysis to Orchestration: How FP&A Is Evolving in the AI Era

The Digital FP&A Circle is proudly sponsored by:

The Power of Driver-Based Planning in the Age of AIAs AI accelerates analysis, the role of FP&A is expanding beyond producing insights and forecasts. The next challenge is turning those insights into coordinated action across the business.

FP&A Trends research shows that only 2% of FP&A teams consider themselves fully optimized, while 74% of finance professionals believe AI agents will play a crucial role in the future of FP&A. As planning, forecasting, and decision support become increasingly AI-enabled, finance leaders must rethink how FP&A teams operate, collaborate, and create value.

Join the Digital North American Circle on July 16th to explore how FP&A leaders are evolving from analysts into orchestrators of performance, decision-making, and business value in an AI-enabled world. 

A recording of the event will be shared afterward with everyone who registers.
