For the first time ever, Accountex partnered with Practice Ignition in the region to help bring 1000’s of accountants together to discuss the ups and downs that COVID has thrown at our lives and our businesses. We’re extremely grateful and happy with the end result, we hope you enjoyed the summer and we can’t wait to put the show together again for you next year!

We were fortunate to be joined by some of the brightest minds in accounting both working in practice, as a supplier or as the governing body. I’d like to personally thank all of the sponsors and partners of Accountex SA for your hard work and commitment to creating such a spectacular event. I’d personally like to call out and say thank you to both SAIBA and the SAA for your assistance with providing accredited CPD, as well as facilitating some excellent panel discussions with your members.

A very special thank you to XU Magazine for being our media partner on both the South Africa and UK Summit, we really appreciate your support!

In May, Practice Ignition partnered with Accountex, ACCA & GenCFO to put together the Accounting & Finance Virtual Summit. Where we were able to bring together over 16,000 accountants, over 100 speakers and 60 different sessions ONLINE for the first time ever. Making it one of the biggest online accounting conferences in the world.

The best part is that we were able to raise over £44,000 for the NHS, in a time where we were fighting our own mental battles, where we were learning how to home-school our children whilst running a full-time business and looking after the needs of our staff and our clients.

After every summit, we’ve sat down to review what worked, what didn’t and how could we do this again - but better. With this in mind, Accountex has partnered with Practice Ignition to host the first official Accountex UK Virtual Summit on the 25th & 26th of November.

This time around Accountex has engaged more speakers, more suppliers and we’re driving a deeper relationship with ACCA to provide quality content - online, to the UK accounting community.

As we head back into more uncertainty in different locations around the country, there’s a lot of conversations to be had on what’s working, what’s not and how do we continue to navigate the disruption and change that’s occurring weekly.

We look forward to serving you and curating a relevant line-up of content and conversations that you can use to help fuel your motivation and aspirations for 2021.

I look forward to seeing you all there!
