He will also present common challenges facing audit, risk, and compliance professionals and how to overcome them.

The SOX Summit agenda also includes a presentation from Sue King, Partner, and Louis Collins, Partner, of KPMG LLP where they will offer practical insight on how to identify, disclose, and remediate a material weakness.
