Wright Vigar at Accountex London: Insights from Our Experience

We are excited to share our recent participation in Accountex London 2024, the world’s largest accountancy and finance expo, held at ExCeL London from 15-16 May. With over 10,000 attendees, Accountex London is renowned as the industry’s most prestigious and sought-after speaking engagement.

This year, we were honoured to attend as guests of CaseWare, a leading provider of innovative accounting solutions. Our team was invited to contribute to one of the panel discussions focusing on the challenges currently facing the accounting industry. Representing Wright Vigar, Josh Bowden delivered an insightful talk on these challenges and how firms can navigate them effectively.

We sat down with Josh following the event to get his feedback from the event. Here’s what he had to say:

“Being invited to speak at Accountex London was an incredible honour. It was both exciting and a bit nerve-wracking, given the calibre of the event. I wanted to ensure that our contributions were valuable and thought-provoking for the audience.

I felt honoured to represent Wright Vigar and I am grateful for the opportunity to speak at such a prestigious event. It was a valuable learning experience and it is something I am glad I have done. Putting myself out of my comfort zone wasn’t easy, but the feedback from the attendees was positive and this has given me the confidence to do it again.”

Beyond the speaking engagement, our team explored the latest innovations in AI and cloud accounting. These technologies are transforming the way accounting firms operate, offering enhanced efficiency, accuracy, and client service. By understanding these advancements, we aim to continuously improve our service offerings and provide our clients with cutting-edge solutions.

There was

a lot of discussion around how emerging technologies, such as AI and cloud platforms, are set to revolutionise the industry. The knowledge gained from this event will help us implement more AI and cloud accounting solutions, ensuring our clients receive the highest level of service.

We are committed to leveraging the insights and relationships gained at Accountex London to drive innovation and excellence within Wright Vigar. Our participation in such a prestigious event underscores our dedication to remaining a trusted and forward-thinking advisor in the accounting industry.
