The Dubai FP&A Board was established on the 25th of October 2016 as an educational and networking platform for the local FP&A community.
Since its inception, members representing leading global and local companies such as Emirates Airline, Hitachi Energy, Uber, GE Healthcare, Novartis, Telstra, Barclays Bank, and many others have joined this think-tank. Together, we explore the best way to address the challenges in the FP&A community in the 21st century. During the meetings, we guide the development and promotion of best practices in global FP&A, identify and support new trends, skillsets, and innovations.
The speakers from Takeda, Novartis, Emirates Airline, Gourmet Gulf, Essar Projects, and others presented their insights and case studies.
