The 2026 CFO Summit will bring together some of the country’s top finance leaders to discuss managing today’s business challenges, working together more effectively and adapting quickly in a fast-changing world.
Today’s CFOs are expected to be more than just financial stewards – they are strategic leaders who drive innovation, shape company culture and anticipate future challenges.
Titled Return on CapExcellence, this year’s event will take place in the heart of Johannesburg’s bustling business district on 10 February 2026.
As organisations commit significant resources to technology modernisation, infrastructure expansion and long-term transformation initiatives, the CFO’s role has expanded well beyond funding approval.
It now requires disciplined prioritisation, rigorous execution and clear accountability for value creation. In an increasingly volatile economic environment, CFOs are expected to ensure that every rand invested delivers measurable impact while safeguarding business continuity. Return on CapExcellence speaks to this shift.
The event will kick off with peer-led insight sharing and an interactive Rands and Sense group activity. It will also include a panel discussion on the CFO as both fixer and catalyst for strategic reinvention.
Speakers include:
Carel Snyman, group CFO, Altron
Aalia Manie, MD, Webber Wentzel Fusion
Omair Khan, CFO, Anchor Capital
Rebecca Pole, VP: Finance, NTT Data Southern Africa
Richard Tanner, CFO, Korridor
This year’s summit promises to be an exciting evening filled with insightful conversations and networking with industry peers.
