About this Event
Innovation and automation is a high priority for accountancy firms. The sector is progressing rapidly despite the fact it still suffers from significant underdevelopment, most notably within specialised software such as document management, client onboarding, and expense management.
The UK is a leading country in Europe in the professional services sector and Denmark is a European leader in digitisation. So to explore synergies, we would like to invite you to a dialogue and networking session at the Danish Embassy.
The event will feature UK and Danish perspectives on the industry, showcase specific technology innovations coming out of Denmark and offer a chance to network with a group of selected colleagues at the Danish Embassy in Knightsbridge.
To participate, please register by 15 June. Capacity is limited and all attendees must be registered in advance. Please bring picture ID.
For any queries, please contact Oscar Flyvbjerg Junker at [email protected].
