Any organization needs to play scenarios practically, in real-time. The flexible FP&A model, implemented through a modern technology platform, enables agile and adaptable planning. That is why business modeling is one of the critical skills of modern FP&A professionals.

What are the best practices in building Driver-Based Financial models? How do we identify internal and external drivers, and use technology for integration and collaboration?

Join us for this webinar on March 24th to discover the answers. The professional panel of practitioners and thought leaders will share their insights on the Future of Business Modeling: Evolving From Excel to Integrated FP&A.
