The Arc of Finance Leadership with a16z
We’re bringing together finance leaders and founders building for them from across the tech ecosystem for a unique evening of connection and conversation. The night begins with an optional ride aboard the Arc Sport, a high-performance electric speed boat from our co-host Arc Boats, a16z portfolio company, offering a chance to connect informally on the water.
Afterward, we’ll gather for a private dinner to discuss the latest trends shaping the evolving office of the CFO, from scaling finance operations and navigating the markets, to adopting new technologies that are redefining how finance teams lead. It’s an opportunity to share perspectives with peers and gain insights into the future of finance leadership in tech.
