The program consists of two knowledge exchange 'power' sessions of about 20 minutes each, followed by a keynote by Willem Middelkoop. You are welcome to join the knowledge sessions, the keynote, or both.

  • 16:30 – walk-in & welcome

Willem Middelkoop
Willem is most commonly known as economic expert at RTL Z and as author of several books on finance, including 'The Big Reset' (2014), and 'Als de Dollar valt', with the latter being in its 17th print.

Empowering employees to take control over their own pensions
The new pension regulations open the way for individual beneficiaries to take more control over their financial future. Alexander Brouwer, pension expert and founder of Vive, will share what the possibilities are and what the future for individualized pensions and what the future will bring.

The impact of AI regulations on technology companies
For most modern professionals, AI is rapidly becoming an integral part of their day-to-day work execution, yet developing or working with AI in the European Union is bound to strict regulation. Sybren de Beurs, partner at Nauta Dutilh, will share the impact of the regulations and how it affects business operations.

Food and beverages will be served and the event is free of charge. For this event you are welcome to bring your founder or CEO.

Expect a low-barrier and informal event with likeminded professionals where inspiration, networking and knowledge exchange are key.

Location: Amsterdam center. The location can easily be reached with both car and public transport. After signing up you'll receive an invite with the location.

Participation is free of charge.

About CFO.community

Connecting people & knowledge

Founded in 2016, CFO.community brings together finance executives from tech-enabled companies with in-person events. We enable meeting likeminded people who operate in similar roles in the same industry, in an in informal setting and out of their day-to-day company routine.

We aspire an informal, low-barrier, and inspring atmosphere where it is easy to catch up with peers. You can attend events as you please: it is not mandatory to attend all events. Participation to events is always free of charge.

We typically invite external keynote speakers to the events. Earlier speakers include:

  • JP Balkenende (former prime minister)
  • Pieter Hasekamp (head of the CPB)
  • Hans van de Vlist (head of the FIOD)
  • Jeroen Slob (former CFO of Ajax)
  • Joris Luyendijk (journalist and writer)
  • Eloy Lindeijer (chief investment officer PGGM)
  • Eric Smit (founder Follow The Money)

There is no strict definition of ‘tech company’, yet common denominators are a tech-centered business model, some form of growth capital (VC/PE) and/or rapid growth. CFO's attending will typically work for companies in the internet/software/fintech, biotech, medtech or deeptech/hardware industries.

CFO.community is sponsored by ABN Amro and NautaDutilh. If you have questions, please contact co-founder Marie-Claire van Hessen at info@cfo.community or Eli van Goudoever via LinkedIn.
