Preparing for an initial public offering (IPO) is a complex, high-stakes undertaking that requires seamless coordination across the organization. Among the most critical contributors to a successful IPO is the Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) function. This virtual session will provide finance leaders and professionals with a strategic perspective on how FP&A can effectively support IPO readiness. We will examine the essential capabilities and practices needed to meet the demands of public market preparation—from financial forecasting and internal controls to valuation modeling and investor communications.
The format of the roundtable event typically involves several short presentations by industry experts, followed by a group discussion where participants are encouraged to ask questions and share their own perspectives. The purpose of these events is to discuss and analyze the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities facing the finance industry.
At the forefront of the event is the Expert Presentation stage, led by field experts who will present their findings and insights on the event's topic, prompting stimulating discussions and generating new perspectives.
The Case Study Discussion stage is where attendees collaborate and engage in active discussion, leveraging their knowledge and expertise to dissect a real-world case study that is relevant to the event's theme.
The Insights Presentation stage is the climax of the event, where the most compelling roundtables are selected to present their findings.
Finally, at the conclusion of each event, attendees will receive a certificate of attendance, symbolizing their commitment to the pursuit of knowledge and their participation in a remarkable intellectual journey.
