I didn’t even know I needed. If you’re in the accounting world and haven’t been yet, make 2026 your year. I’ll be there, soaking up inspiration and motivation all over again.” Exclaimed visitor Kristy Glenister, 4cast Bookkeeping Limited.

“I debated whether to take a full day out of the office to attend Accountex London, but I’m so glad I did. I came away feeling energised and inspired after soaking up so much knowledge. With a packed agenda of expert-led, relevant and future-focused seminars, I was truly spoilt for choice! There were also plenty of other learning experiences like the Masterclasses and Showcase Stage programme to choose from.” Commented visitor Leila Singh, Success Redefined Limited.
