Summarize with AI:
Priority Software is proud to be a Platinum Sponsor of World Finance Forum Chicago 2026. As part of our sponsorship, we'll be participating throughout the event with a tabletop exhibit and a featured session at 12:25 PM.
Our session, “AI in Finance: What's Working, What's Hype, and What CFOs Should Do Next,” presented by David Anderson, Head of Presales – North America, and Rahul Puri, GM & Head – North America, introduces a practical Assist → Advise → Act framework for determining where AI should improve productivity, where it should analyze and recommend, and where it can responsibly execute. Through real-world finance scenarios, attendees will explore how to determine the appropriate level of AI autonomy based on value, confidence, risk, and control – and leave with a framework for prioritizing AI opportunities and turning AI investment into measurable business value.

CFOs and finance leaders are under growing pressure to modernize faster – adopting AI, tightening FP&A processes, and reshaping how finance partners with the rest of the business. World Finance Forum Chicago 2026 brings together CFOs, finance directors, FP&A leaders, and finance technology providers to discuss the practical realities of leading finance through this shift.
Taking place October 22, 2026, at voco Chicago Downtown – Riverwalk in Chicago, Illinois, this one-day executive conference is built for finance leaders who want real strategies, not vendor pitches. The event focuses on leadership, transformation, business partnering, and innovation – with a strong current focus on how AI is actually changing the finance function, versus where it's still more hype than substance.
Whether you're rethinking your FP&A operating model, evaluating AI tools for finance, building a business partnering strategy, or simply looking to benchmark against peer CFOs, World Finance Forum Chicago offers keynotes, panel discussions, and dedicated networking time with finance leaders across industries.
