Reflection to the 2011 CFO Forum
Over 70 financial decision makers (59% CFOs) from over 17 countries met in Prague last year to discuss matters of importance to you as a senior financial executive in the areas of strategic planning, risk management and innovation.
Program was opened by Mr. Tom De Weerdt, VP Finance & CFO Whirlpool and followed by workshops led by Mr. James E. Hurley, professor at DePaul University Chicago and specialist on business valuation and advanced corporate finance.
The central part of the conference included wide range of executive business-case experience presented all by CFOs and followed by vivid debates. Following panel discussions addressed major CFOs concerns, including currency issues, business effectiveness, corporate ratings, financial restructuring and many others. As one of the feature of the forum, discussion continued during cocktail reception hosted by EBCG.
