Beyond Excel & Copilot: How Accountants Win with AI

​Your clients already use ChatGPT. Your practice needs more than a chatbot.

​Making Tax Digital, fee pressure and a hiring market with no juniors in it: accountancy firms are being asked to do more with fewer people. The firms that pull ahead won't be the ones with the most AI subscriptions. They'll be the ones where AI actually does the work.

​What you'll get

• ​A live demo of an AI employee working a real practice inbox, start to finish

• ​Straight talk from accountants and fintech builders on what works and what doesn't

• ​Ideas you can use in your practice the next morning, and people worth knowing

​The evening

• ​6:30pm: doors and drinks

• ​7:00pm: live demo. Watch Saint, an AI employee, work a practice inbox live: chasing missing receipts, reconciling a bank feed, preparing the working papers and drafting the client email for review. No slides.

• ​7:30pm: speakers and Q&A. Speakers from accounting firms and fintech on what's working, staying compliant, and what AI means for pricing and hiring. Line-up announced soon.

• ​8:15pm: drinks and networking until 9pm

​Who it's for

​Partners and practice owners, managers, accountants and tax advisers, bookkeepers, in-house finance teams and the people who run practice technology.
