Wolters Kluwer : CCH Forward Together virtual conference will help accounting firms navigate change (2024)

Practitioners, technologists, and thought leaders who continue to set the bar for advancing the tax & accounting profession will come together to define the next level of digital transformation.

Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting today shared the theme and focus for its 2020 CCH Forward Together (#CCHFT20) virtual conference. This event for customers and strategic partners in North America will take place on October 26-30, 2020 and will feature dozens of virtual keynotes, networking, and topical sessions designed to define the next level of innovation across the accounting profession. Top performing firms should plan to attend to address the challenges posed by the new work environment, to take advantage of digital transformation to modernize their practices, and to turn today's rapid pace of complex legislative and regulatory change into opportunities for growth.

'As we deal with the effects of the current market both in the short- and long-term, Firms need to adapt to thrive in a new environment. Firms that are already modernizing their operations through digital transformation have proven to be in a better position to successfully address these challenges and the changing needs of their clients,' said Jason Marx, President & Chief Executive Officer, Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting North America. 'During the CCH Forward Together virtual conference, we've assembled an exciting roster of interactive sessions led by some of the top visionaries in the profession so we can jointly work to help move the profession forward together.'
