The FAAA will be bringing together leading voices in technology, financial advice, business leadership, and professional practice for its three-day annual congress.
To be held from 24 to 26 November at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, this year’s theme is ‘explore’.
FAAA CEO Sarah Abood said: “Congress is where Australia’s advice profession comes together to explore what’s next.
Congress provides the chance to reconnect with colleagues…
“Whether it’s technology, regulation, business strategy, or client engagement, every session has been designed to provide practical insights advisers can take back into their businesses.”
She said the event gives advisers the opportunity to hear from industry leaders, challenge their thinking, learn from their peers and leave better equipped for the opportunities ahead.
“Just as importantly, Congress provides the chance to reconnect with colleagues from across Australia,” she said.
“Those conversations and shared experiences are one of the things that make this event so valuable each year.”
The program features five keynote plenary sessions alongside specialist workshops and more than 20 technical breakout sessions.
Key sessions include:
- Dr Jordan Nguyen, internationally recognised inventor and engineer will open Congress with a keynote exploring how curiosity, innovation and emerging technologies are reshaping what’s possible
Dr. Jordan Nguyen - The FAAA leadership team, including David Sharpe, Michelle Veitch, Sarah Abood, Phil Anderson, and Andrea Forbes, will provide an update on the regulatory landscape and the future direction of the profession
- Four specialist workshops focused on sustainable business success, commercial realities for advice firms and collaborative idea sharing
- A closing keynote featuring jockey Michelle Payne in conversation with journalist Sara James
Congress will also feature networking opportunities, technical workshops and CPD-accredited sessions, providing advisers with practical tools to strengthen their businesses and better serve clients.
On the final evening of Congress at the gala dinner, the FAAA will recognise and celebrate the best in financial advice with the FAAA Awards.
