Building on the success of its 2025 debut, Finance Forum 2026 will once again bring together senior in-house finance leaders and decision-makers from mid-to-large organisations for a day of strategic insight, trend exploration and collaborative problem-solving. Designed to address the evolving priorities of modern finance leaders, the event will continue its mission to equip attendees with the ideas, tools and connections to navigate uncertainty, drive innovation, and futureproof their organisations.
The 2026 programme will expand on core themes from the inaugural edition, exploring key areas such as Financial Leadership, Digital Finance & Transformation, and Finance Strategy. Attendees will benefit from exclusive thought leadership sessions, peer-to-peer discussions, and practical takeaways designed to inform and inspire the next chapter of finance leadership.
Delegates will also earn 8 hours towards their Continuing Professional Development (CPD) while engaging with leading technology and solution providers shaping the finance function of the future. Confirmed sponsors for Finance Forum 2026 include Sage, Spendesk, AccountsIQ and AAT with further partners and speakers to be announced in the coming months.

“Finance Forum was incredibly well received this year and the engagement made it clear there’s real appetite for a focused event built specifically for in-house finance leaders. We set out to put attendees first and it’s clear that approach landed.”
“For 2026, we’re moving to 10 November and relocating to the West Hall at London Olympia. A brilliant space with natural daylight from it's sweeping glass façade, and a private entrance just for our attendees. We’ll be building on everything that worked this year: stronger content, curated event plans, an expanded VIP offering, and new socials to help people connect. We can't wait for next year already.”
