Beyond Accounting – Winter is Coming

For this event we partnered with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales and focused on the impact and potential outcomes of the current global energy crisis. How this is impacting us, what is likely to happen next and what can be done about it. We started with 3 presentations. Firstly a perspective on ’resilience’ and how we can take steps to mitigate / resolve / address the impact of the energy crisis. Then a ‘people’s perspective’ on what is happening now and what may happen in future. Finally, the ICAEW viewpoint of the energy crisis and its impact on accountants, focusing on the UK, Europe and wider world.

Presentations cover:

• ’Resilience’ and how we can take steps to mitigate / resolve / address the impact of the energy crisis.
• A ‘people’s perspective’ on what is happening now and what may happen in future.
• A perspective from ICAEW on the energy crisis, impact on accountants focusing on the UK, Europe and the wider world.
• Our speakers then return, to take questions from the audience and our moderator.
