ECIIA conference 2024
InterContinental Budapest, hungary
26-27 September
Welcome to the ECIIA – Solve The Puzzle Conference!
The connection between puzzle solving and the internal auditor profession lies in the intricate nature of auditing tasks. Much like solving a puzzle, auditors piece together information by navigating through complexities. Both require analytical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to see the bigger picture by connecting various elements.
In our upcoming conference the puzzle-solving mindset becomes a practical tool to embrace the opportunity of engaging with industry leaders, share best practices, and stay at the forefront of internal audit advancements at the 2024 ECIIA Conference — your gateway to shaping the future of audit.
Join us in engaging sessions, productive discussions, and memorable evenings enjoying Hungarian cuisine and culture. This conference will energize you to return home with fresh perspectives and solutions to the major challenges in your role.
Thank you for being here!
We hope you had a great time participating in our event and safely returned home with dear memories. Here’s a video to remember the best moments of the conference.

Craig Stanland
Reinvention Architect Advisors LLC
In 2012, Stanland made a decision that shattered his life. His decision caught the attention of the FBI, leading to a two-year federal prison sentence, three years of supervised release, and restitution more than $800,000. From the depths of federal prison to a profound personal transformation, his journey is a testament to resilience and redemption.
He will walk the audience through the dark labyrinth of fraud – dissecting the mindset, identifying the triggers, and shedding light on the control loopholes he exploited. More than a cautionary tale, his story is a roadmap toward building a robust defense against corporate fraud. The audience will gain not only a unique insider’s perspective but also practical, applicable strategies to safeguard their organizations.
