Join an inspiring network for CFOs

CFO

Strengthen your role as CFO

 Whether you work at a managerial or strategic level, we can offer you a strong professional network where your issues are in focus.

an evolving role

Today's CFO roles goes beyond managing finances in corporations

As a CFO, you are responsible for managing the company’s finances – a role that today is not only about being the financial gatekeeper for the business, but also the CEO’s right hand, acting as both strategic advisor and partner.

With significant responsibility for the running of the business, naturally comes greater demand for new and additional skills to peak in the CFO role – and this can give rise to a need to seek relevant sparring, inputs and inspiration outside of the familiar.

You can get all this in our tailored networking groups for CFOs. Here you enter a universe of your own, where valuable knowledge sharing and professional sparring are top priorities. You will be carefully matched with other like-minded professionals, all representing a broad cross-section of Swiss business, who match you, your background and your aspirations.

Utilize your network

Stay on top of current industry knowledge, insights, and best practices

The network will be your professional workspace, where you can share your insights and experiences, get sparring and concrete solutions to management challenges, and share your ideas with like-minded people in a safe and confidential environment.

It is important that you have a good and solid network behind you, who understands you and is ready to help when you need it – and that is exactly what the network group is for.

Composition is key

Be part of a strong peer group with like-minded profiles

The network brings together CFOs and other experienced finance profiles, all of whom want to broaden their professional horizons and strengthen their areas of expertise.

The groups focus on the CFO role in a forward-looking perspective, including which digital tools you can use to streamline, automate and further develop your business.
