The CAPA Conference, proudly hosted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka), is an important milestone as it is the 20th instalment of a legacy that marked the birth of CAPA. The conference will be held both in-person and to be broadcasted LIVE (accessed via the dedicated CAPA Conference microsite).

With the theme: ‘Heritage: Many businesses, One planet’, the flagship event seeks to take a holistic perspective on how the accountancy profession can play its part today, for a better future. Moving away from purely traditional focus areas of the accountancy profession to encompass the changes affecting our business and environmental landscapes, the conference will explore contemporary conversations, opportunities and challenges presented by our times.

The Asia-Pacific region includes some of the most dynamic and fastest-changing economies. The stage is set for extensive deliberations on what the accountancy profession can and must do, including reforms that must take place, and how we can rebuild trust, embrace ethics and good governance, as well as harness the positives of technology to forge a sustainable future and leave a heritage we can be proud of.

Come join us for an opportunity to share knowledge, network and mingle with like-minded professionals from all over Asia-Pacific.
