The CFO vs CDO: Bridging the gap in data challenges to drive business value

Event information

Data is integral for strategic decision-making in business. Finance teams are not only tasked with internal analysis of financial data but also play a pivotal role in advising board members and C-suite executives on how to extract greater insights from reporting.

In this webinar, Craig Stirk, the Chief Data Officer at Sprift, and Adrian Talbot, the Global Chief Financial Officer at Miroma Group, will discuss their experiences with data-related challenges across various facets of a business. They will explore their strategic priorities when it comes to transformation, risk management, and stewardship. The discussion will also focus on how to integrate both perspectives to better leverage data and enhance business value.

This webinar will also explore the evolving skill set required within finance and how teams can adapt for day-to-day efficiency.
