GENCFO is Going Global
This moment marks a milestone in a journey that began with a simple, radical idea: that the finance function deserves more than spreadsheets, silos, and status quo thinking.
The Journey So Far
What started as a digital-first movement for modern finance professionals has evolved into a thriving global community of ambitious, open-minded trailblazers united by a shared mission to drive meaningful change.
Over the years, we’ve brought together a new generation of finance professionals who see beyond compliance and control.
Whether through our virtual and in-person events, exclusive member experiences, GENCFO Awards celebrations, and powerful partnerships with the likes of AICPA & CIMA and ACCA, GENCFO is reshaping how the finance function creates value in today’s business landscape.
Our Next Stop? The US
Now, driven by the growing presence of US members in our community, this expansion invites American finance professionals to join a global movement, one that’s redefining the future of finance, from the ground up.
