We heard from two fantastic speakers: Paolo Savini Nicci, CFO at Job&Talent, and Liz Kistruck, CFO at Motorway. Liz kicked off proceedings, discussing how CFOs must navigate chaos effectively by embracing it, leveraging technology and building aligned relationships with the rest of the leadership team. Liz also highlighted how data-driven decision-making is crucial for CFOs as a strong data and tech foundation can enable a more ambitious risk appetite.

Following Liz, Paolo discussed Job&Talent’s growth journey over recent years and highlighted different avenues to growth through a combination of fundraising, acquisitions and the debt market. Paolo also explored the key components of successful fundraising and highlighted the need for a clear growth story, a well defined investment thesis, preservation of a strong relationship with lenders and providing transparent information to investors.

Thanks again to everyone who attended and exchanged ideas, engaged in insightful debates and built new connections. We look forward to hosting other functional meet-ups to continue to contribute to the growth of the tech community in London.
