Highlights from Accounting Innovation Challenge 2019
Challenge Statements
How might we use technology to identify skills and competency gaps that potential recruits and current employees have, to assess ‘the right fit’ for the organisation and reduce hiring costs?
How might the accounting sector better optimise manpower and / or augment the existing workforce, to deal with varying levels of resources required during peak and off-peak periods?
How might we leverage technology to reduce manual effort and increase effectiveness when performing preparation work for the internal financial reporting process?
How might we leverage technology to reduce manual effort and increase effectiveness when performing financial forecasting and analysis for small and medium enterprises?
How might we create an automated vouching system for test of details which will replace a large amount of manual effort that typically comes along with performing vouching in an audit process?
How might we create a common disclosure matching platform that is able to simplify or automate the checking process of disclosure checklists to save time and manual effort while retaining accuracy and completeness?
How might we leverage technology to help small and medium tax service providers collect required accounting information from their SME clients and prepare their tax computations more efficiently?

*BACECAMP is a structured mentorship programme organised by ACE to equip early-stage start-ups with key insights, best practices and capabilities to start and grow. Participating start-ups would receive mentorship, attend workshops and talks on key topics as well as access a suite of resources provided by ACE’s network of partners.
