ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Kuwait Chapter of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (KCICAI) has been successfully conducting annual international conference for the past two years. Our flagship conferences aim to provide a platform to establish a prolific dialog among renowned professionals, entrepreneurs and leaders of varied fields from India, Kuwait & GCC, in empowering finance professionals.

The world today is on the cusp of a breakthrough. We are constantly pushing boundaries in all aspects and with ever expanding horizons, the finance professional is siting at a pivotal juncture. He/She is no longer restricted to finance, audit and taxation. Today, he/she forms a critical resource in all spheres, from start-ups to conglomerates, from grassroots to global policymaking, and even to sports, politics and so on. Going in line with the above endeavor, the theme for our 3rd International conference is set as

“Expand Your Horizons”

CREATE - ADAPT - REINVENT - EXCEL

The theme “Expand Your Horizons” was carefully chosen for the conference. KCICAI strongly believes that Chartered Accountants have achieved success in a variety of areas. Keeping this in mind, it is imperative that we provide finance professionals with a dynamic platform to broaden their knowledge, skills, and perspectives in an everevolving financial landscape.

This exciting event brings together industry experts, thought leaders, and practitioners to explore innovative strategies, emerging trends, and transformative technologies that are reshaping the finance sector. By fostering an environment of learning and upholding excellence, we can guarantee sustained growth and relevance in an ever evolving market place. Through engaging sessions, interactive discussions, and networking opportunities, participants will gain invaluable insights to enhance their professional growth and contribute to the success of their organizations.

Our lineup of speakers will shed light on these expanding horizons and the frontiers of the future. They have “Created” opportunities where none existed, “Adapted” to challenging situations, “Reinvented” the default rulebook and inevitably “Excelled” in their respective fields. Let›s tune in, immerse ourselves, and draw inspiration from the infectious enthusiasm and positivity radiating from our eminent speakers!
