Head of Finance Shared Services,

I really believe that the Finance Shared Services & GBS Exchange is a very good and important event for all of us who are in the industry. Personally I
think this is the right size of event; it is big enough to learn from each other and have very good case
studies, but small enough to have roundtable discussions and networking opportunities as well.
