About this Talk

Navigating the transition from a startup to a scaling company can be challenging, particularly when it comes to building a robust finance function. After securing Series A funding, it's crucial to establish a financial infrastructure that can support rapid growth and complex operations. This panel will bring together seasoned finance leaders and experts to discuss the key strategies and best practices for scaling your finance team and processes effectively.

Join us as we delve into topics such as:

  • Hiring and structuring a finance team for scalability
  • Implementing financial systems and software to support growth
  • Developing robust financial planning and analysis (FP&A) capabilities
  • Managing cash flow and optimizing working capital
  • Managing existing investors and leading future fundraising efforts
  • Navigating compliance, audits, and financial reporting requirements

Whether you're a founder, CFO, or finance professional, this panel will provide actionable insights and practical advice to help you build a finance function that not only supports but also accelerates your company's growth trajectory. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from industry leaders who have successfully scaled their finance operations post-Series A. 

This event is a part of Startup Boston Week and is perfect for startups post Series A and those who have not quite crossed that threshold yet but are looking to prepare for what is in store for them in the future.
