The HFMA West Midlands Branch is bringing you it's 
first virtual festival of finance!
Throughout the week, we will be running three online workshops a day. Each session will offer something different, from restoration and recovery to harnessing digital technology and wellbeing. Delegates are invited to attend as many or as little sessions as suited, but all across the region are encouraged to join us in our very first virtual festival of finance.

Why attend?
This unprecedented time calls for unity. Therefore, this online virtual festival is a great opportunity to take the time out of a very busy year, to reflect on adversity faced, challenges overcome and sharing of best practice and new techniques as we've settled into the 'new normal'. Additionally, for the first time ever, the West Midlands Branch are offering organisational tickets. This allows for each organisation to send delegates from the finance sector and beyond for a tiered price. 

Platform 

This conference will take place on Hopin, which is a fantastic all-in-one live online events platform.
