GRC Day is a two-day educational event focused on governance, risk, and compliance in the cloud. With an evolving GRC landscape and increased scrutiny on reporting, completeness and accuracy, the need for comprehensive GRC programs are escalating in priority. This event will focus on how to more effectively manage risk and compliance within an organization. At this event, NetSuite users will learn tips, tricks, best practices, and strategic recommendations that they can implement immediately.

NetSuite SuiteWorld 2016, the #1 Cloud ERP Conference, will be held in San Jose, Calif. May 16-19. The GRC Day event will occur at the Doubletree San Jose Airport on May 15 & 16. Please find the full agenda and registration at www.grcday.com. Attendees to GRC Day will also be eligible for eight (8) hours of CPE Credit.

For publicly traded and pre-IPO companies, meeting Sarbanes-Oxley compliance requirements can present unique challenges.  Moreover, PCI compliance and increased PCAOB scrutiny create another set of potential hurdles. This educational event can help companies of all sizes understand best practices for developing, deploying, and maintaining controls both within their NetSuite implementation, and their company overall.

Industry leading speakers from NetSuite and Fastpath, as well as NetSuite partners Deloitte, Protiviti, Grant Thornton and Armanino will provide their insights.  Additionally, NetSuite customer GoPro will share real world experiences implementing and managing GRC in NetSuite.

“Effective, scalable, and robust GRC programs play a vital role in customer success and growth. NetSuite understands this, as well as the importance of our role in enabling such programs,” said Brian Taylor, Senior Director of Compliance at NetSuite. “GRC Day is a great opportunity to bring NetSuite, its customers, partners, and leading audit professionals together for this education and networking event.”

“GRC Day is a master class in how to manage risk in a Cloud ERP environment. For anyone that has recently gone public, is thinking about going public, or operates in a controls-focused environment, this is the event for you,” said Andy Snook, President of Fastpath.
