About The Event
Credits: 1 NACD Credit
Austin, TX | October 28, 2026 | 4:30 PM - 6:30 PM CDT
The audit committee role has never been more demanding. Responsibilities that once centered on financial oversight have expanded to include AI governance, data privacy, cybersecurity, and an increasingly complex relationship with the CFO and executive team.
Join a curated, off-the-record peer exchange in collaboration with KPMG and Russell Reynolds Associates for an intimate conversation about what this evolution means in practice. Drawing on both public and private company perspectives, the discussion will cover the expanding skill set required of today's audit committee, how AI is reshaping finance organizations and board oversight responsibilities, the board-CFO relationship and how each side can better support the other, and key considerations for companies navigating the private-to-public transition.
This peer exchange is designed for NACD members who are audit committee chairs and members, CFOs, and board directors who want sharper frameworks, stronger alignment with management, and a candid conversation with counterparts facing the same challenges.
