Critical and timely content for you

As a component of CFO All Access, the Virtual Roundup responds to an ever-evolving climate with an interactive virtual meeting of CFOs, COOs and Senior Finance Executives looking to benchmark processes and strategies that are shifting due to these unprecedented times.

The Roundup will provide vital peer insight and feedback on issues impacting firms and portfolio companies and will facilitate the development of solutions for driving the business forward during a crisis in a strategic and operationally focused manner.

The Virtual Roundup will shed light on how CFOs and COOs are addressing subscription lines and alternative sources of capital, virtual fundraising, challenges with valuations, private equity regulation, diversity and inclusion within the firm and much more.

3.

What equipment do I need?

All you need is your computer and an internet connection to experience the CFOs & COOs Virtual Roundup. We recommend that you access the event from a desktop or laptop computer using Google Chrome, Firefox or Safari browsers. We also recommend you enable your webcam while at the Forum. You will not be visible during the main sessions, but this will make interacting with other delegates easier when you take part in roundtable discussions, networking sessions and one-to-one video meetings.
4.

How do I access the platform?

The platform will launch 4 weeks prior to the event. As a registered attendee, you will be sent a unique link to access the platform. That link is unique to you and cannot be shared with anyone else.
5.

How will I know how to use the platform?

We have a dedicated “Virtual experience” page to help you navigate the platform. The advantage of having access a few weeks before is that we can help you iron out any issues you might be having with plenty of time before the event.
6.

I have watched enough webinars over the past 6 months, why would I want to watch more?

We hear you – which is why we have structured the platform to ensure you are part of the conversation. You will be able to:
  • Ask questions of panel speakers during the session
  • Spend time face-to-face via video conference with speakers to ask questions after the session
  • Join roundtables to discuss the topics that matter to you with like-minded peers
  • Focused networking breaks where you can discuss the strategies and opportunities you are
    interested in
  • Pop in to sponsor booths to connect via video and discuss their offerings or a presentation that they have given
7.

What if I forget that a session I want to attend is on?

You can build your own personal agenda within the platform and opt-in to receive notifications when sessions are about to begin.

8.

Is “virtual networking” just a buzzword for direct messaging or email?

Absolutely not! The virtual platform will feature direct messaging functionality, but it also has inbuilt video conferencing that allows you to invite other people into a single meeting. Just select your potential business partner/s from the attendee list and invite them to chat.
9.

What about the timezone difference? How do I set meetings on my timezone?

The platform shows available meeting times as per your computers timezone. For example, if you are based in New York, a meeting you set for 12 pm from your account will show to a recipient in California as 9am, reducing the human error impact of incorrectly guessing timezones. It is worth noting that event timings will be running on Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) which is GMT+5. The platform will note the timezone abbreviation next to most timings to avoid confusion.
