Connect ’25 is back! This time we’re heading to the heart of Manhattan.

Join us October 1–2, 2025, at the iconic Times Center in New York City, just steps from Times Square, for a one-of-a-kind experience built for finance and audit professionals.

Whether you're an auditor, controller, or risk professional, Connect ’25 is THE event to sharpen your edge and prepare your team for what’s next in the evolving world of AI, automation, and innovation.

And the best part? It’s free to attend. (🤯We know.)

Still need convincing? Here’s 6 reasons to attend.

1. Learn how to become a forward-looking firm (real stories)

One of the most valuable aspects of NY Connect is the opportunity to hear directly from leaders and innovators who are shaping the future of audit and finance.

You’ll go beyond buzzwords to see how top-performing firms are using AI in practical, powerful ways—from automating repetitive tasks to transforming risk assessment and financial reporting. These are real stories from peers, customers, and industry experts who have navigated the challenges you’re facing today.

You’ll also gain exclusive insight into the biggest trends we’re seeing across the industry, how forward-thinking firms are preparing for them, and the tools that can help you bridge the gap between current capabilities and future needs.

You’ll walk away with clear, responsible strategies you can apply immediately to position your organization for what’s next. Take a peek at the agenda and see for yourself.

2. Bring the whole team and earn CPE credits together

Great ideas are even better when your team is in the room. Since Connect is 100% free to attend, it’s the perfect chance to make this a team experience, and earn CPE credits while you’re at it.

With sessions tailored for auditors, finance leaders, risk specialists, and the AI-curious, there’s something for everyone. Bring the whole crew and split off for the topics that speak to your role. Then regroup to share takeaways and spark new ideas back at the office.

Think of it as your team offsite, but no planning required.

3. Agentic AI: What it means for finance and audit

The topic that is on everyone’s minds…agentic AI.

Agentic AI refers to systems that can plan, reason, and take actions with a level of autonomy. But how does that play out in regulated environments like finance, audit, and compliance?

You’ll hear from industry leaders exploring:

• Real-life applications of agentic AI in internal audit and control
• The ethical implications of autonomous decision-making tools
• How firms are preparing their people and processes for this shift

You’ll leave ready to separate science fiction from strategy.

4. Experience big ideas in the Big Apple

Let’s be honest, Times Square isn’t usually where New Yorkers go for inspiration. Between knockoff Elmos, the Naked Cowboy, and tourists filming TikToks in the middle of crosswalks, it can be chaotic.

But just steps away is The Times Center (a venue that’s all business). For two days, it becomes home to Connect, where the only characters you’ll see are finance leaders and audit experts.

Whether you're a local or visiting for the first time, it's the perfect excuse to experience NYC at its best: big ideas by day, and maybe a slice from Joe’s Pizza after.

5. Put your risk instincts to the test

As an auditor or finance leader, you're no stranger to handling sensitive data. So when AI enters the equation, it's only natural to question how cybersecurity fits into the picture. Step into the driver’s seat of a cybersecurity crisis simulation and see how your team would respond under pressure. Powered by Protiviti, this interactive experience challenges you to make high-stakes decisions in real time. It will surely test your instincts across financial, operational, and reputational risk.

6. A look inside DataSnipper’s vision: bridging today’s gaps and tomorrow’s opportunities

At NY Connect, we’re pulling back the curtain on where audit and finance are headed—and how DataSnipper is evolving to get you there.

We’ll share the trends we’re seeing across the industry and the market, drawn from working with thousands of audit and finance professionals worldwide. You’ll get exclusive insight into how those trends are shaping our product roadmap, and how we’re building tools to solve the challenges you face today—while preparing you for the opportunities that lie ahead.

It’s your chance to see how innovation in the platform you already use can help your team work smarter, adapt faster, and stay ahead in a changing industry.
