Agnes Kibirige boasts over twenty years of experience in enhancing processes and driving growth through technology-driven solutions.

Her exceptional ability to streamline technology vendor relationships and improve quality and efficiency generated substantial savings for The Children's Guild.  Agnes's career started as a business analyst at Ford Credit, where she worked as a developer building solutions that she later led teams to implement.

Adam Kuhn was an English major in college – so of course he ended up being a leader in the association technology space.  But seriously – being able to explain how technology works in an organization is half the battle in gaining adoption – whether it is in the mailroom or the boardroom.  Adam’s passion is making sure that technology facilitates productivity in an organization – rather than impeding productivity, whether you are working at home or working in the office or somewhere in between. FIA is the leading global trade organization for the futures, options and centrally cleared derivatives markets, with offices in Brussels, London, Singapore and Washington, D.C.
