Webcast

About the KnowledgeCast

As 2025 approaches its end, consumer and retail internal audit teams are navigating an environment marked by evolving risks and heightened expectations from both management and the board. While emerging technologies create new opportunities, they also introduce fresh challenges. Moreover, fostering a culture of innovation remains difficult, particularly in the face of ongoing recruitment and retention issues.

Join Mike Smith, KPMG Internal Audit Solution Leader and moderator, for an engaging KnowledgeCast featuring Ivor O’Neill, KPMG Consumer and Retail Managing Director, alongside Glyn Smith, Chief Audit Executive for Performance Food Group.

Key topics to be covered include:

  • The shifting risk landscape for consumer and retail enterprises
  • Internal audit's role in driving organizational transformation
  • Striking a balance between assurance and advisory to create value
  • Effective talent management strategies given AI and disruptive technologies.
