Her name is Rio…
October 2024
Another spectacular Russell Bedford International annual global meeting; this time in the fabulous Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
It was a long way to come for many, but well worth the trip. I enjoyed the executive session, where we highlighted the network’s recent successes, achievements and developments, and I had the pleasure of hosting two panels: sustainability (transforming the profession - ESG and the future of accountancy) and succession planning (future-proofing your succession in the age of disruption).
Key sessions also included discussions on AI, cyber resilience, business development, fraud risks, key business drivers, tax issues, digital marketing and major world economy trends.
But… as always, it was the interaction, the member feedback and that ever-important networking which creates something so truly special at our events. Getting to know each other more, integrating new colleagues and enhancing relationships, is what we’re all about. Lots of great ideas to take back to develop even further for more, enhanced generation of business.
And so… although we might not have had too much time to dance on the sand, when we shined we really showed all we can!
Thank you to our hosts at Russell Bedford Brasil, to all presenters, those who assisted at workshops, delegates, companions, and my team for their fantastic support over many months before and throughout the event.
