Scaling with the right mindset | Finance beyond borders

Scale like a champion. Learn from Booking.com's former chief financial officer how to build winning routines, think strategically and future-proof your growing business.

In the final webinar of our Finance Beyond Borders series, we sit down with Olivier Bisserier, former CFO of Booking.com, to explore what it takes to scale a business at Olympic speed – without burning out or losing sight of the bigger picture.

Olivier helped Booking.com expand into more than 20 countries each year. His lessons are essential for founders and finance leaders alike, especially those building their finance stack from day one.

In this webinar, he'll talk about scaling a business at speed, how we're looking at work-life balance wrong and why modern CFOs must be tech-savvy and think like Olympians.
