Erna Slana is the Director of Finance and Controlling and a Member of the Board of Directors responsible for Finance at Medis Group, the leading company for the commercialization of innovative pharmaceutical products in 18 countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).

In 2023, the SCTA members were also introduced to the use of artificial intelligence by ChatGPT, the preparation of ESG sustainability report in annual reports and insights into the world of cryptocurrencies.

The Strategic Council meeting, planned for early 2024, will identify the key topics for financers and treasures which will be further presented to the association's members at the regular meetings and the annual conference – to help them be more confident in facing the many of challenges ahead.
