The most respected and influential leaders in the accounting profession are preparing to gather in February in Indianapolis for this year’s Thought Leader Symposium.

Hosted by CPA Practice Advisor, the annual event gathers brings these thought leaders together to discuss emerging trends, technologies and workflow practices that will influence the profession, professionals and clients in the years to come.

“This exclusive event provides a unique opportunity for key members of the accounting profession who are taking the reins and moving the profession forward to share ideas and insights, consider changes and trends in the profession, and discover new and innovative ways in which they can work together to education and improve the profession as a whole,” said Gail Perry, editor-in-chief of CPA Practice Advisor and facilitator of the event.

During the invitation-only symposium, attendees participate in round table discussions with each other and senior management from leading technology companies who serve the accounting and tax profession. The thought leaders will get a first-hand look into the technology companies’ strategic plans, while sharing the issues that matter most to tax and accounting professionals. Participants and vendor attendees are then able to refine strategies for best serving accounting professionals and their clients.
