We are pleased to announce the joint ICAEW and the IFRS® Foundation virtual conference on IFRS 16 Leases on Tuesday 10 October 2017. This innovative online event is arguably the first truly global and widely accessible IFRS conference.
The conference will bring together experts on the new leases Standard from around the world. They will provide a unique mix of authoritative technical content and insightful international and regional perspectives from the standard-setters, users, accounting practitioners and business. It will be of interest to those wanting to better understand the Standard and the challenges of implementation, and will be of particular interest for those working in a financial reporting role in sectors where the impact is more significant, such as the transportation, real estate, mining, construction, and retail sectors, plus those with significant leased premises.
Due to the significantly reduced overhead costs of a virtual conference, entry to the event is only £60+VAT. Take advantage of being able to log in, participate from anywhere in the world, and drop in and out of the conference at your own convenience.
The conference will be opened by IASB Chairman, Hans Hoogervorst, and ICAEW CEO, Michael Izza, and will include live Q&A sessions with the presenters, live panel discussions tailored to the three separate time zones (London, Dubai and Singapore), and a range of supporting technical and thought leadership materials to download. Navigate around the content, presentations and live Q&A and panel sessions according to your areas of interest.
It will also include:
- A series of technical sessions featuring IASB experts, led by Patrina Buchanan and Kathryn Donkersley
- Live audio panel discussions
- Live sessions featuring a technical Q&A with IASB speakers
- Opportunities to re-visit recordings of the sessions after the conference has finished.
