Each year, finance and internal audit leaders from EBU Members come together to exchange experience, compare approaches and address the challenges shaping public service media.
The event offers a unique opportunity for public service media professionals to discuss best practices on strategic planning, risk management, as well as common financial and audit challenges and opportunities that are transforming the broadcasting industry.
Through case studies, peer exchange and expert insight from across the EBU community, participants will explore current developments and share concrete solutions to common challenges.
