The Future of Finance Hackathon
What if your next hire wasn't a person, but an agent you built yourself?
Spend the day building practical AI agents alongside other CFOs, FDs and finance leaders, with AI experts and engineers on hand to help turn your ideas into working solutions.
Whether you want to automate reporting, streamline month-end, speed up board packs, improve forecasting, build internal copilots or simply eliminate repetitive admin, you'll leave with practical tools you can immediately put to work.
enki, HSBC Innovation Banking and Round Treasury are bringing together some of London's most forward-thinking finance leaders for a day dedicated to one question:
What does the finance function look like when AI becomes part of the team?
Following our April hackathon, enki is back with a sharper focus: the future of the finance function.
AI isn't replacing finance leaders. It's changing what great finance leaders do.
The best CFOs won't be the ones completing the work themselves. They'll be the ones designing systems, managing AI agents, and building finance functions where people and AI work together.
This isn't a conference or a day of talks. It's a day of building.
You'll spend the day working alongside peers, engineers and AI specialists to build something that's truly useful to you or your clients, and leave with new workflows, new skills and a working automation you can continue using after the event.
What to expect
A room of high-calibre CFOs and FDs from across London, all building together
Workshops split by skill level, so whether you're just getting started with AI or already building agents regularly, there's a track for you
Hands-on building time, supported by AI experts and engineers from our partner organisations
An end-of-day showcase, with a chance to present what you've built
A working AI agent or automation to take home, ready to use in your own finance function
