November 4-5, 2011: IAAER Sponsored ACCOUNTING RENAISSANCE: Arising from the Crisis and Looking to the Future. Learning from Histories and Institutions and Conference Programme and Session Schedule
Venice, Italy

The Conference intends to build on the awareness that the global financial crisis has challenged the accounting and auditing realm from many points of views. Contributions are invited from authors that wish to investigate from a variety of perspectives (including that of policy-making) and with different methodologies, the relationships between financial crisis and accounting and auditing from the point of view of specific national or local contexts, as well as from a global standpoint, addressing also the ways forward for the accounting domain in a complex world where corporate information of financial and non-financial nature will play a more and more important role.

May 27 - 30, 2012: Value in Sustainable Business Practices

Building on the success of past conferences Value 2012 will be the forth biennial Value conference hosted by the Faculty of Economic and Financial Sciences, University of Johannesburg.

The understanding of the term ‘value’ varies from person to person and from discipline to discipline. For profit-oriented organizations the main focus might be on adding financial value to ensure organizational viability. Adding and recognizing value may be useful for a growing business with innovative ideas on learning critical lessons for managing the 21st century marketplace. In an academic environment the term ‘value’ might have a completely revolutionary meaning. There is however still much to be learnt about what drives the concept of value in society today and how sustainable business practices could influence and enhance value.

Worldwide corporate governance reform requiring the adoption and disclosure of sustainable business reports; together with stakeholders becoming more educated and aware of how organizations generate profits and base investment decisions on more than just the financial bottom line, have led to the corporate environment placing a greater focus on sustainable business practices. These developments occur alongside the ongoing debate on the nature and extent of value in sustainable business practices.

Academics investigate the concepts of value and sustainability and industry leaders attempt to model new business strategies to capture the essence of value through sustainable business practices.

The Value 2012 conference is the perfect platform for researchers and academic minds in related financial disciplines, as well as business leaders, to present and debate issues in a way that would lead to a better understanding and hence, recognition of value through sustainable business practices, thereby contributing to a more sustainable corporate Africa.

The AICPA and IASC Foundation have jointly developed this conference to help you better understand the convergence of US GAAP and IFRS or the transition to IFRS. As an educator, you will get insight into the flexibility with which the new standards operate and learn what to expect from regulatory bodies going forward. The intensive agenda features in-depth presentations, panel discussions and dedicated Q&A sessions with leading IFRS experts to give educators a clear understanding of how the convergence or adoption can affect the education sector.

Attendees will hear directly from IASB Chairman Sir David Tweedie and FASB Chairman Robert Herz as well as from senior leaders at other U.S. regulatory bodies. Paul Volcker, Chairman, U.S. Economic Recovery Advisory Board will deliver the keynote address on the global impact of IFRS, and there will also be case studies from companies that have already adopted IFRS, providing preparer perspectives on implementation challenges, technology requirements and best practices. Plus, don’t miss out on the pre-conference special interest session: IFRS Teaching, Training and Research (#105).
