For nearly three decades, AccountingWEB has been listening to the people shaping the profession: the challenges they face, the opportunities they see and the ideas that are changing the way they work.

FAB is the next chapter of that conversation.

Created by the team behind AccountingWEB and powered by Sift, FAB brings together decision-makers, practitioners, technology providers and industry experts to share ideas, challenge thinking and make better decisions about the future.

Why FAB?

The profession is rapidly changing. FAB exists to help the people shaping it stay connected, informed and ready for what comes next.

Connections that matter

Connected Buyers, Roundtable Debates and Leaders Network.

Curated opportunities to meet the people who can help you move your business forward.

Ideas you can implement

Expert-led discussions, masterclasses, workshops and AccountingWEB AI Labs with Sage.

Practical insight designed to help you tackle the challenges facing your business today.

An experience built around you

Your priorities. Your agenda. Your FAB.

From personalised connections to hands-on experiences, choose what matters most to you.

"One of the real values of AccountingWEB is that it can feel like a professional “safe space” to ask the questions you often can’t ask internally. A lot of finance professionals – especially those in senior or standalone roles – don’t necessarily have true peers within their own organisation to ask. Honest content from people facing the same real-world challenges around the evolving role of finance within businesses gives me comfort."

"We joined one of three roundtable debates, moderated by Richard Hattersley, sponsored by Modulr on the topic “Scaling payments automation”. I loved the conversations and the viewpoints from other practitioners."
Eriona Bajrakurtaj
CEO |  Volt Digital Transformation
"The biggest highlight? Meeting so many amazing people, reconnecting with familiar faces, and making new friends and connections that I’m sure will last for years to come. 

I genuinely feel lucky to be part of such a passionate, supportive and forward-thinking profession."

Nick Paddenburg
Director |  Paddenburg & Co
"It's the moments between the sessions - meeting in person people you've connected with online, catching up with colleagues and friends from the industry and mining the experience of fellow accountants while waiting for a talk to begin that make FAB such a special event."
Amy Good-Chin
Founder |  Origami Accounting & Advisory
