Conference Overview

INNOVATE is a two day conference during which nonprofit accounting professionals at every level will be inspired, develop skills, solve problems, and share knowledge. The goal of the conference is to empower attendees to innovate, and drive positive change within their organization. INNOVATE features multiple tracks: one is dedicated to financial leadership, another toward the latest technologies, and two are designed specifically for Sage 100 Fund Accounting (formerly MIP) users.

INNOVATE 2012 – Bigger, Better, and All New!

INNOVATE has always focused on helping you create positive change, and this year, we challenged ourselves to rethink, refine, and redesign INNOVATE to make it better than ever. For 2012, nearly every session has been rewritten to ensure past attendees will learn something new, but we didn’t stop there. We’ve also introduced a new Leadership Track that will inspire executives with the best practices in nonprofit financial management. For advanced Sage 100 Fund Accounting (formerly MIP) users, we’ve created the more challenging Mastery Track to explore higher level topics, with real world examples from some of our most challenging deployments. We’ll also be showcasing an array of innovative technologies, including a complete suite of cloud applications. So, no matter what level you’re at or where your interests lie, there’s something for everyone at INNOVATE 2012.


Track Descriptions

Financial Leadership Track

Solid financial leadership is the key to a nonprofit’s long-term performance. This track will focus on key issues facing financial leaders, with each session led by an expert on the topic. The goal of each session is to provide leaders with insights, best practices, and practical advice that will help them achieve a higher level of performance within their organization.

Mastery Track

Designed to challenge even experienced Sage 100 Fund Accounting users, the Mastery track will explore higher level topics in a unique case study format. Attendees will be introduced to complex nonprofit issues encountered by clients in real world situations, in which the subtleties of proper implementation were the key to success.

Fundamentals Track

This track provides an introduction to the core capabilities of the Sage 100 Fund Accounting product and its most important add-on modules. Our consultants will demonstrate the best practices for utilizing these powerful tools to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your organization.

Innovative Solutions Track

Technology is constantly evolving. With each passing day, innovative solutions are being developed to expand the capabilities of popular systems and in some cases, to replace those systems. On the first day of this track, we’ll showcase products that expand the capabilities of Sage 100 Fund Accounting (MIP) in order to save you time and money, while making your organization more effective. On the second day of this track, we’ll focus on standalone, cloud-based applications and applications that will work with any financial management system.
