This is The CFO Roundtable

  • North America’s pre-eminent corporate leadership forum for CFOs and senior finance executives
  • Over 5,000 members participating – by invitation only – in quarterly CFO events in 10 markets
  • A professional networking platform like no other

Mission
Provide a knowledge-based forum for CFOs and senior finance executives to exchange best practices, network with their peer group and foster exceptional leadership.

Quarterly Events
Designed by and for CFOs and senior finance executives, each CFO Roundtable event focuses on a timely financial issue. Participants share insights, ideas and best practices. Connections are made. Relationships are renewed. You will depart with a fresh, more informed perspective on the critical business issues facing your organization today – and tomorrow.

Our History
The CFO Roundtable was created in 2005 by Cushman & Wakefield in partnership with The University of Georgia Terry College of Business. The program launched in one market. Its immediate success led to rapid expansion into multiple cities. Today the CFO Roundtable is widely recognized as the foremost CFO group of its kind.
