The Finance, Accounting & Bookkeeping Show

16/10/2026

Two days in London with our FAB Advisory Boards, done 📍⚡

We brought together a proper mix of people across the industry: solo practitioners, scaling firm owners, corporate CFOs, and fintech founders.

We did this because a great event isn't planned behind closed doors. It’s built with the people living the daily reality of the job.

Over the last 48 hours, we questioned session formats, debated AI, and cut out the fluff to focus on what really matters.

The result is an agenda for FAB 2027 at the NEC that is practical, sharp, and genuinely useful.

Huge thanks to everyone who spent their time with us this week 🤝

Live from London 📍☕

The FAB Advisory Board is in the building. We’ve gathered some of the sharpest minds, practice leaders, and industry innovators in one room today for one reason: to shape the FAB 2027 agenda.

We’re mapping out the big debates, testing session formats, and making sure the show floor delivers exactly what firm owners and finance teams need next March.

No corporate fluff, just real industry leaders building something epic for the profession 💥

We can't believe it's already been a week since the Accounting Excellence Awards. 🏆

We couldn't not share this clip from the big screens on the night. 🎬

Awards night was about celebrating the people raising the bar across accounting, bookkeeping, and finance. But as the video showed, the celebration is just the start.

In March 2027, we bring the whole community back together at the NEC for two days of unscripted debates, real advice, and catching up with the right people.

FAB isn’t built in isolation. It’s shaped by the people working in the profession every day. The decisions they’re making, the challenges they’re facing and the conversations they want to have next.

That’s why our three FAB Advisory Boards are such an important part of the journey to .

🔹 Finance Leaders
Bringing the perspective of CFOs, FDs and senior finance professionals shaping the future of finance.

🔹 Mid-tier & Large Firms
Sharing what’s happening inside growing practices, from transformation and technology to people and performance.

🔹 Small Firms & Bookkeepers
Keeping us close to the reality of running a modern practice and the opportunities and challenges that come with it.

Across all three, they’re challenging our thinking, helping shape the programme and making sure FAB reflects what the industry actually needs.
