For AP and P2P professionals, meaningful networking opportunities can be hard to find. In a digital-first world, real conversations with peers who understand your challenges are often missing.
At IOFM Fall, we change that. You’ll join a community of financial operations professionals who are eager to share ideas, solutions, and opportunities. From structured roundtables to casual conversations, every connection is intentional—and every connection has the potential to impact your career.
Take a moment to explore the different ways we drive peer networking at our Conferences.
Peer Networking at IOFM Fall
Networking is consistently listed as a top reason to register for IOFM Conference attendees. Below, we outline the various opportunities available to you at our Fall Conference & Expo.
Attendees can take networking to the next level with the Matchmaking tool on our mobile app. Simply set your professional interests, goals, and what you’re hoping to get out of the event. The app’s AI-driven platform will then recommend the most relevant connections—helping you find peers, solution providers, and thought leaders who align with your objectives.
From there, you can send messages directly through the platform, schedule 1:1 meetings in advance, and plan your networking strategy before you even arrive onsite!
At the Opening Reception, the expo hall comes alive as connections begin at exhibitor booths and shared tables. Attendees are introduced to exhibitors and each other—sparking meaningful conversations, and often, friendships that last well beyond the event.
On the following evening, the Networking Reception offers another chance to deepen those conversations and broaden your circle. It’s the perfect time to exchange ideas and strengthen relationships with peers in an energetic setting.
Join moderator-led discussions with professionals who share your interests, industries, or ERP systems. These small-group roundtables provide a collaborative space to exchange solutions and gain practical insights from peers who understand your challenges.
[NEW!] In addition to our popular Day 1 networking block, we’re offering continuous peer roundtable sessions in a dedicated room throughout the entire conference. More sessions. More topics. More chances to connect. Visit this page to learn more about Peer Roundtables.
Enjoy an approachable, low-pressure area to sit down and meet fellow attendees. Each table comes with a set of conversation starters for those who aren’t sure where to start. This is a great space for people to meet up in person after connecting in the mobile app!
Unwind with your peers at the IOFM Party: an evening of music, drinks, and lively conversation. Enjoy lively entertainment while celebrating your accomplishments together.
Every meal and coffee break is a chance to network! Strike up a conversation at your table or connect with peers and sponsors on the expo floor. Refuel, recharge, and build relationships between sessions.
