The Digital Benelux FP&A Board: The Art and Science of FP&A Storytelling

The Digital Benelux FP&A Board is proudly sponsored by:

             Robert Half
 

​

There are so many great stories to be told in FP&A in order to facilitate the decision-making process! At this time of advanced analytics, flexible dashboarding and effective data visualisation, FP&A Storytelling has become both an art and science.

We would like to invite you to the next FP&A Trends Webinar where senior finance leaders from Coty, FedEx Express, Nidec - ACIM Division and Unit4 will share their practical insights on the subject.  

How can we apply analytics, visualisation and dashboarding to FP&A Storytelling in order to enhance the fact-based decision-making process? 

Join our experienced and international panel of speakers to find out the answers and to learn more about The Art and Science of FP&A Storytelling.

The Digital Benelux FP&A Board will be held on the 11th of May 2021 from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM CEST. 

If the timing is not right, you can listen to the recording later as it will be available to all registrants afterwards.

What is International FP&A Board?

The International FP&A Board was created in London (UK) in 2013 to guide the development and promotion of the best practices in Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A). Since then, the Board chapters have been successfully established in 27 cities and 16 countries across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia, and North America. They aim to identify and support new global trends, valued skill sets and leadership practices in modern corporate Financial Planning & Analysis. 

Digital Benelux FP&A Board will unite our chapters from Brussels and Amsterdam. We are also looking forward to inviting guests from Luxembourg where FP&A Board is not geographically established yet.
