As always with Accountex, tickets are absolutely free and can be obtained via the website here. Whether you are an accountant in practice or in business, director or student, you will find that Accountex is a veritable treasure trove of value.
Now in its fourth year the National Accountancy Exhibition & Conference – Accountex is now firmly cemented in the diaries of all the most proactive accounting practices from around the UK.
Every year Accountex attracts the largest, best-known and upcoming suppliers to the profession for 2 days of non-stop offers, product launches, invaluable information, workshops, seminars and more freebies than you can carry. From its inaugural show in 2012, Accountex has always had the full support of the profession’s main associations, institutions and professional bodies.
Traditionally Accountex has always been held on a Thursday and Friday, however, having taken on board visitor feedback, the organisers of Accountex have moved the show dates forward to Wednesday and Thursday in order to make it easier for delegates to attend on either day, meaning that on the 13-14 of May 2015 over 6,000 accountants will descend upon ExCel, London to cash-in on this unparalleled array of solutions to improve their accounting practice and hear from thought-leaders and experts on how their profession will be morphing over the coming years. There is no better time or place for accountants to take 2 days out of the office to further their careers, earn valuable CPD points, absolutely free, and see their profession from all angles by enjoying the full conference schedule on offer at Accountex.
Following 2014’s Accountex, as usual, some fascinating discussion about the perceptions of the industry came to the fore about how the industry is changing, and this is exactly why Accountex is so popular. Accountancy is now undeniably recognized as being an essential factor in the success of most large companies; in fact, 54% of SME’s said that their Accountant was their biggest influence and advisor, according to Exact’s General Manager, Lucy Fox.
This year Group Event Director, Scott Hider, announced that there will be a couple of notable changes made to 2015’s Accountex. Firstly the Keynote Theatre will double its capacity to accommodate the usual standing-room only audiences that flock to see the full schedule of high profile speakers, thought leaders and learn about the hottest topics and trends facing the profession. The keynote stage will wrap around the corner of the event hall creating an L-shaped theatre – meaning that 2015’s Keynote Theatre will not only boast more seats, but also even bigger name speakers and exclusive content that cannot be found elsewhere.
Due to popular demand 2015 will also witness changes to the always popular and ever relevant ATT & CIOT Tax Theatre which will now feature dual entrances on either side of the exhibition hall meaning that even more delegates from both Accountex and its sister show Legalex can enjoy the tax seminars.
Accountex 2014 was extremely well documented by Lead Media Partner AccountingWeb from their very own Press Zone situated near the front of the show broadcasting interviews with the great and the good from the accountancy world and posting directly onto their website and YouTube channel.

The app is available for free download on both the Apple AppStore and Google Play for Android devices and is a must have for Accountex 2015 visitors.
So if you are keen to widen your knowledge and understanding of topics such as: Capital Allowances, Mobile Technology, Risk Management, Anti-Money Laundering, UK GAAP and Cloud Technology, to name but a few, then Accountex 2015 is simply unmissable with an incomparable selection of high profile speakers, over 150 CPD certified seminars, 25 interactive workshops and 175 leading industry suppliers.
