SUMMARY:Beyond Accounting: The Era of Energy Disruption
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nMay 20th 2025 at 12.00am Eastern / 9.00am Pacific / 5.00pm UK  \nCAW Network USA invites you to attend this exciting online event focusing on discussing the impact on the global economy of\, and on accountants living in\, an Era of Energy Disruption. Our first session (presentation) runs for about 45 minutes. We will follow this by introducing our moderator and additional panelist\, who will join Gerard for the second session (panel discussion) of about 45 minutes\, which can also include any audience Q&A. The second session will focus on tying back the initial presentation to its impact on the accounting profession. Total time including introduction and polls 90 minutes. \nThis presentation will cover: \n\nImpact of Technology and AI\nEnergy Security\nGeopolitics\n\nThis will be followed by a panel discussion of the key items and priorities arising. \nLearning objectives: \nBy the end of today’s session\, attendees will have achieved the following objectives: \n\nUnderstand how technology and AI are accelerating change. While the major step change is AI\, improvements in other technologies including solar\, batteries\, power electronics are also forcing change.\nLearn how Energy Security is moving from dependence on seaborne transport and on countries such as Saudi Arabia which have required us over the last 75 years to militarily defend to a world of locally produced electricity where the security concerns are very different. Making sure we have 24/7 electricity is a must given the digital societies we live in and requires investments to ensure the system is resilient against risks such as climate (forest fires\, floods\, storms)\, as well as physical and cyber attacks. Where there is overlap and inconsistency and how the accounting profession has an opportunity to become the trusted advisor and assessor of compliance.\nBe aware of how Geopolitics is changing\, including how energy and security have always been at the heart of all conflicts. How this impacts value chains and pricing.\n\nFor more information please contact chiefexecutive@cawnetworkusa.com \nEligible for up to 1.5 CPE credits in the field of Personal Development[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” disable_element=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1678288345603{background-color: #e0e4e8 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Discounts available for members: \n\n\n\nTo get more information please email: chiefexecutive@cawnetworkusa.com[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1745488995226{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;background-color: #FFFFFF !important;}”][vc_column][vc_btn title=”Register here »” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fcawnetworkusa.com%2Fevent%2Fbeyond-accounting-the-era-of-energy-disruption%2F|target:_blank”][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nMEET THE SPEAKERS\n[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”432558″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle” css=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_column_text css=””]Gerard Reid is based in Dublin.

SUMMARY:Beyond Accounting - Sustainability in Transactions
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]23 APRIL – 7pm – 8.30pm EASTERN / 24 APRIL – 11am NEW ZEALAND / 9am SYDNEY \nCAW Network USA invites you to attend this exciting online event\, Beyond Accounting – Sustainability in Transactions. \nAddressing the issues of sustainability\, including environmental\, social and economic impacts of the transition to a net-zero economy\, represents a key challenge for most organisations. Despite this\, business activity continues\, with the investment and divestment cycle remaining another fundamental part of organisations’ activities. Corporate acquisition and disposal transactions\, including those that are private equity (PE) funded\, are a fundamental part of many economies. The interrelationship between these two areas of focus\, mergers and acquisitions / divestment and sustainability-related issues\, is the subject of this report. Using the insights of nearly 50 accountancy and finance professionals from across the world\, many of whom are members of ACCA or CA ANZ\, this report provides a context for this interrelationship between sustainability and these major corporate transactions. The report is not a detailed explanation of the transaction process; rather\, it is intended to support chief financial officers (CFOs) and their teams in identifying appropriate sustainability-related considerations during the investment and divestment workflows. \nThree key messages from this report \n\nSustainability-related opportunities and risks cannot be ignored in a transaction: they now form a fundamental part of the strategic intent of the transaction and the valuation of an entity.\nThe assessment of these risks and opportunities must be comprehensively considered as part of the due diligence process\, both as a specific workflow and as an integral part of other forms of due diligence.\nOrganisations need to ensure that they have an appropriate level of expertise across the transaction workflow and in relation to the target’s operations\, assets and liabilities.\n\nJoin us for an exciting online event where we explore the issues surrounding Sustainability in Transactions. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\nThis presentation will help its audience: \nUnderstand the issues of sustainability\, including environmental\, social and economic impacts of the transition to a net-zero economy.\nUnderstand the challenges facing most organizations\nUnderstand the interrelationship between mergers and acquisitions and divestment.\nUnderstand how to identify appropriate sustainability related considerations during investment and divestment workflows. \nFIELD OF STUDY: Business Management and Organization \nPREREQUISITES: No prerequisite provided attendees are qualified CAs and/or CPAs. \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND: Open to members and associates of CAW Network USA and their guests. \nADVANCE PREPARATION: Not required \nPROGRAM LEVEL: Basic \nDELIVERY METHOD: Group Internet \nREFUND / CANCELLATION POLICY: No fee for members or guests \nCOMPLAINT RESOLUTION POLICY: For more information regarding refund\, complaint and/or program cancellation policies (as relevant)\, please contact chiefexecutive@cawnetworkusa.com \nEligible for up to 1.5 CPE credits in the field of Business Management and Organization[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nRegister Online\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Please Note: If you are a member\, and you login\, your registration form will automatically pre-populate with the details we have on file for you.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_section title=”Have a member account?

SUMMARY:Change for Sustainability!
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The role of the accountancy profession in maintaining trust in an era of sustainability. \nSustainability should be at the forefront of everyone’s agenda\, and yet\, for many businesses\, both large and small\, it’s not! \nChartered Accountants are perfectly placed to help address this. They are a nexus for change within an organisation. As trusted advisors\, Chartered Accountants are at the centre of sustainability reporting and are key to helping companies embed sustainability-related goals and regulations and perform on-the-ground monitoring and measuring. \nThe role of finance and business in meeting the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals is crucial. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development\, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015\, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet\, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)\, which are an urgent call for action by all countries – both developed and developing – in a global partnership. \nThe UN SDGs recognise that ending poverty and other deprivations must go together with strategies that improve health and education\, reduce inequality\, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests. \nWith on-going social and economic upheaval\, it is vital that sustainability does not slip down the agenda. We are calling on you to be an agent of change for a better future. Can you be the Difference Maker? \nJoin us to hear from leaders within Indonesia and beyond\, who will provide a local and global perspective on the shared challenges facing us all. \nAPA Fest 2022 will culminate in a joint session with FinBiz2030 – part of the FinBiz2030 Building Resilience event series. The webinar will take place on the 10th of November 2022\, with the theme “Change for Sustainability”. The joint session brings together a panel of young leaders in the finance and business communities who are making a difference in Indonesia\, the ASEAN region and beyond.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nRegister Online\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nMeet the Speakers\n[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Opening Remarks: Michael Izza\, CEO of Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales and Chairman of Chartered Accountants Worldwide[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”428983″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_circle”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text] \n\n\n\nRemarks from Kate Robertson\, Founder\, One Young World \n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”244949″ img_size=”full” style=”vc_box_circle”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text] \n\n\n\n\n\nPanel discussion on “Change for Sustainability” with Robin Spierings\, Program Manager The Sustainable Flight Challenge[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Robin Spierings (she/her) is leading the initiative to transform an entire industry and accelerate sustainable aviation\, by bringing together and challenging each and everyone\, including herself to step up She is changing the game and dares the industry to treat sustainability like safety.

SUMMARY:CAW Network USA Northern California Chapter Presents: From Corporate Tax Havens to Corporate Accountability: a non technical look at global trends
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]On April 20\, 2021 Business Insider ran a story by journalist Juliana Kaplin headed ‘American corporations are paying their fair share  – to international tax havens”. \nIn 2021\, over three years after the tax reforms of December 2017\, is there factual support for this statement? \nThis non-technical discussion looks at the history of corporate tax reduction via offshore structures together with the impact\, still emerging\, of the 2017 changes to the way the federal government taxes offshore income.  We will also look at international trends. \nWe will look at the public financial data of three companies across three industries that were (and sometimes are) often criticized for their use of offshore structures: Microsoft\, Citigroup and Merck. What has\, and has not changed over time\, and why? \nThis is a data-driven discussion\, and the presenter\, Murray Buckman\, does not take a political view.  The purpose is to help the audience to understand and filter the “noise” emitting from across the political and media spectrum. This meeting is for members of the CAW Network USA Northern California chapter and their guests.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Find out more” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fcawnetworkusa.com%2Fevent%2Ffrom-corporate-tax-havens-to-corporate-accountability-a-non-technical-look-at-global-trends%2F|target:_blank”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

We will explore how these states can negatively impact our professional and personal lives\, as well as providing some practical tools that can help to regulate and improve our emotional responses\, while identifying practical ways to build resilience and mental wellbeing.\nThe importance of the breath and meditation as tools to support mental wellbeing and a practical breathing session\nIn the closing keynote\, Jonny shares his experience with mental fitness in both a personal and work capacity and takes us through the importance for businesses to focus on mental health.\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Book now” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Flearning.cawnetworkusa.com%2Fcart%2F%3Fadd-to-cart%3D2114|target:_blank”][vc_column_text] \nSpeakers\n[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1618935240220{margin-bottom: 10px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”429223″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″][vc_column_text] \nNathalie McVeigh\nNathalie works with Eisner Amper and is Director – Center for Individual & Organizational Performance\, Center for Family Business Excellence.
