Editions
Why it matters
Digital CPA is CPA.com's annual innovation conference for accounting firm leaders, running each December since at least 2024 in Denver, Washington DC and San Diego. The 2026 edition, Dec 6-9 in San Diego, lists AICPA member on-site passes at USD 1,895 before the Sept 30, 2026 early bird deadline. It is smaller and more technology-focused than AICPA & CIMA ENGAGE, its nearest rival for firm leaders planning AI adoption.
Who attends
Firm owners, managing partners, and CAS and tax transformation leads at CPA firms, plus finance team leaders evaluating technology. A Pack 8 virtual option lets smaller firms send a group of sessions to staff.
Program
- Client advisory services (CAS), the core content the conference is known for
- Audit transformation
- Tax
