Evgeniy Barinov, Deputy CEO for Finance and Digital Technologies at NANOLEK, took part in the Forum of Chief Financial Officers - 2020 “CFO of the future: partner, mentor, strategist” organized by RBK media group.

The forum brought together the heads of financial departments working with major Russian and international companies. The forum participants shared with their peers experience in financial management and ways of how to improve their functionality for better efficiency amidst the rapid development of a business environment.

There is no doubt that the classic CFO duties should be backed up with new tools in order for the company to be successful and reach a new level of efficiency. Today, CFO is a business partner who sets new goals, implements digital technologies, and trains colleagues in new skills.

Evgeniy opened the third session of the forum, which was devoted to the role of CFO in the digital era. He provided a clear evidence of what changes are taking place in his occupation field by personal example: digitalization becomes an integral part of the functionality in a rapidly changing reality; for the next 3-4 years, we are planning to develop a digital transformation strategy, search for in-house innovations as part of automation, monitor the organization chart and participate in external accelerators.
