858 CFO Summit

​The 858 CFO Summit returns to Las Vegas on Sunday, November 8, the day before RFDC.

​Why now. It's been a hard year. Same-store sales are down across much of the industry, and every finance leader is being asked to find growth, savings, and new revenue in a tighter environment. That's exactly what this room is built for. Not theory from a stage. Practical moves, from the people actually making them.

​Last year, briefly. More than 50 finance leaders representing 18,000 locations joined us for peer Share Groups organized by brand size, a CFO panel, and a conversation with Liz Williams on her move from CFO of Taco Bell to CEO of El Pollo Loco. The evening closed in suites at The Sphere. One CFO called it "the most impactful event of the week." Another said it was simply "the best part of the RFDC week."

​This year. We read every note attendees sent and rebuilt the day around what scored highest. The biggest change: serious moderation, with groups set by brand size and by the topics you tell us matter most. You self-select into the rooms that fit your business, so every seat is next to a true peer working the same problems. Growth, cost, new revenue, the tools worth switching to. You leave with best practices you can put into planning, and a handful of CFOs you can call all year.

​Who it's for. Mid-market and enterprise restaurant CFOs. If you joined last year, welcome back, you shaped this program. If this is your first, it's the single best use of a finance leader's time during RFDC week. Ask anyone who was there.

​Details
Sunday, November 8 · 12:00pm to 8:00pm · Las Vegas

​A note on capacity. Attendance is capped at 75 CFOs and each registration is approved individually. Last year's summit filled, and we expect this one to close early. If the timing doesn't work, a reply lets us hold the conversation for next year.
