From AI Potential to Practical Impact: Putting AI to Work in Finance

Sep 24, 2026 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM EST

Event Description

AI is rapidly becoming a priority across the Office of the CFO, but Finance leaders are focused on moving beyond experimentation to practical business value. Join senior finance executives for a candid, peer-driven discussion on where AI is making an impact across planning, forecasting, close, reporting, and analysis, and how to responsibly build trust and governance as AI adoption grows.

BWG Connect & OneStream invite you to join an interactive event with industry peers to review & discuss practical insights across the digital space.

As always, there will be no sales pitch and all attendees are welcome to listen and learn.
