5 Reasons Not to Miss This Year’s Digital CPA Event

What do you do with all those big-picture questions you keep putting off?

You know, questions like, “What’s this profession going to look like in five or ten years? What will our firm look like? What are the technologies that should be on our radar today, but we don’t know enough about? Which new service lines should we be considering?

If you’re like a lot of your CPA peers, it probably feels like you never have time to think about questions like these, no matter how important they are to the future success of your career and firm. And even if you did set aside time to consider the future of the profession and how it will impact your firm, you can’t answer these questions on your own.

Inspire. Connect. Accelerate

The Digital CPA conference is designed to allow you to focus on the issues, trends and technologies that will shape your firm’s future. It’s a more intimate event that brings together some of the most innovative, forward-thinking minds in the industry, in an environment designed for collaboration, information sharing and networking. This Dec. 3-6 event in Las Vegas, and livestreamed online, will be a hotbed of new ideas and innovation.

DCPA will inspire you and connect you with leading-edge insights and future-focused leaders from across the profession that can help you accelerate your transformation journey.

Haven’t booked your ticket to Vegas yet? Here are five reasons you should.

  1. Stay a step ahead of trends and technologies

    Think about how much things have changed over only the past five years – you’re probably working with technologies today you hadn’t even heard of then. And there’s a good chance your firm has expanded in directions you would not have anticipated a few years ago.

    From crypto to client advisory services, these advances were anticipated and discussed in previous years’ DCPA events. You can bet that many of this year’s hot topics will be part of running a successful practice a few years from now. At this year’s DCPA, you’ll get a front-row view of what’s next for CPA firms.

  2. Team time!

    The past few years have made it more difficult for your team to connect in person. This event is a prime opportunity for your people to strengthen and support team bonds – in Vegas, no less, where good food and fun are around every corner. It’s a chance for your colleagues to recharge, refresh and get inspired. When they return, they’ll be more connected, productive and effective as a team. To make it easier for your whole team to reap the benefits, group discounts are available to save you an extra $100 - $200 per person.

  3. Choose your own adventure

    DCPA already has more than 40 sessions scheduled, with more on the way. It includes four learning tracks – CAS, Audit, Tax, and Business – with several additional focus areas including artificial intelligence. That makes it easy for you to build your own agenda, matching your unique insight needs.

  4. Networking

    Ask anyone who’s been to DCPA before, and they’ll tell you that some of their most important, lasting connections have been made at this event. The Digital CPA conference will be full of like-minded firm and thought leaders facing the same challenges and opportunities you are. This is your best chance to meet them and join our community.

  5. CPE bonanza

    DCPA is a great way for your entire team to expand their knowledge and skills in key areas while earning CPE. Participants can earn up to 19 CPE credits at the conference, and on-demand viewing is readily available after the event is over so you can check out the sessions you missed or those that you attended and want to revisit. While CPE credit isn’t available for on-demand viewing, your team will appreciate revisiting everything they’ve learned so they can put it into action.

Get ready for what’s next

Are you ready for what’s next in accounting? You’ll be better prepared after spending a few days in Vegas with the people who are actively shaping the future of the profession. In-person registration has sold out for the last two years, so be sure to register early.

It’s easy to register at DCPA23.com. While you’re there, you can also find the full schedule for the event, pricing, testimonials from previous attendees, and more.

Hope to see you in Vegas!
