Rise2040: Preparing Finance Professionals for the Future will take place on 20 October 2026 at the National Motorcycle Museum in Birmingham. The event features Dr Matthew Hansard discussing key themes related to the future of finance, as part of the AICPA & CIMA Rise2040 initiative. Tickets are available for free to £25.00.
Discover the key themes of Rise2040 with Dr Matthew Hansard and learn how to prepare for the future of finance.
The AICPA & CIMA Rise2040 initiative sets out a bold vision for the future of the accounting and finance profession. Exploring key themes including technology and data, value and sustainability, talent and workforce, trust and assurance, and global shifts and society, it examines how the profession can adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing world. The initiative also identifies five strategic plays to help shape that future: building an AI-enabled profession, transforming value models, reinventing the workforce, expanding trust and assurance services, and repositioning the profession for greater impact and relevance.
We will be joined by CIMA Deputy President, Dr Matthew Hansard FCMA, CGMA, CPA (Aust.), for an in-depth look at the Rise2040 initiative and what it means for accounting and finance professionals today and in the years ahead.
This is a valuable opportunity for CIMA members in the West Midlands to gain first-hand insight into the trends, challenges and opportunities shaping the future of the profession. We will explore the key themes and strategic priorities identified in Rise2040, providing practical perspectives on how finance professionals can prepare for a future increasingly influenced by AI, evolving business models, changing workforce expectations, and growing demands for trust, sustainability and value creation.
Your ticket includes a buffet meal and complimentary drinks, with an additional paid bar available throughout the evening. Guests will also have the opportunity to explore the National Motorcycle Museum exhibits during the welcome drinks reception.
