Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU) today opened the polls for voting in

the contest’s five finalists − Cloud Bookkeeping Services, PJCO,

Representing Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States,

represent some of the top accounting firms from around the world,
having embraced online technologies to grow their practices and
help their small business clients succeed and prosper.
During the voting period, Intuit invites the public to visit the
Firm of the Future contest website and vote once per day for the
firm that they feel best embodies the Firm of the Future. For every
vote and social share that takes place, a donation from Intuit will
be made to Kiva.org (up to $25,000 USD), an international
nonprofit based in San Francisco, California that invests in
entrepreneurs from underserved communities around the world who are
looking to create a better future for themselves, their families
and their communities.
To learn more about the finalists, the public can view videos in
the online gallery on the Firm of the Future contest website. These
videos highlight how each firm has embraced online technologies and
how they have helped a specific small business client to
succeed.
“These five firms represent the most innovative firms in the
industry, and we are eager to see how they will continue to grow
and drive success for their own businesses and small business
clients,” said Ariege Misherghi, global leader of Intuit’s
Accountant Segment, Small Business and Self-Employed Group. “These
firms have recognized the benefits of being a Firm of the Future
and have successfully navigated the path forward. Each firm is
already a true champion, and we’re excited to celebrate these
finalists and see who will be named the grand prize winner.”
To help the finalists in their video submission process, Intuit
provided a videographer and film producer to work directly with
each finalist to create a high-quality video showcasing what makes
his or her firm a Firm of the Future. The five finalists (in
alphabetical order) are:
- Cloud Bookkeeping Services, Canada
