Future of Finance Executive Roundtable - Sweden

Moving Beyond Automation to Value Orchestration

As the Office of the CFO navigates rapid technological shifts, Global Business Services (GBS) organizations are evolving from cost centers into strategic value orchestrators. The next frontier is Agentic AI—autonomous, context-aware intelligence that transforms end-to-end finance processes.

Join senior finance and GBS executives for a private lunch and interactive peer roundtable hosted by BlackLine and Capgemini. We will explore practical strategies for deploying Agentic AI, balancing ERP investments with specialized platforms, and embedding rigorous governance into automated finance operations.
