The FP&A Trends Webinar
Using AI to Enhance Your Predictive Planning and Forecasting

The webinar is proudly sponsored by Wolters Kluwer and
its award-winning CCH® Tagetik expert solution for Corporate Performance Management:

Predictive Maturity Model

In the world of Financial Planning and Analysis, the importance of agility and adaptability in planning cannot be overstated. Traditional planning processes that relied on the assumption of a predictable future are no longer sufficient to keep pace with the rapid shifts and uncertainties that businesses face today.

To address these limitations and enhance planning capabilities, organisations are turning to Predictive Planning and Forecasting (PPF), a game-changing approach with the power of AI/ML technologies. This practice empowers businesses to make data-driven decisions, enabling them to stay ahead of the competition.

Join us on the 28th of September for an insightful webinar that delves into how AI/ML revolutionise the Predictive Planning and Forecasting processes. During this exclusive event, senior finance practitioners and thought leaders will share their practical insights and real-world experiences on how to uplevel your planning and forecasting strategies.

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