Euna Solutions Sponsors Live ICMA Webinar on How Public Finance Leaders Can Navigate Funding Cuts and Fiscal Uncertainty

Euna Solutions CEO Tom Amburgey and former Kansas City Mayor Mark Funkhouser will discuss findings from the 2026 State of Public Budgeting Report and practical steps public sector finance teams can take now

ATLANTA & TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Euna Solutions:

WHAT

Euna Solutions^®, a leading provider of purpose-built, cloud-based software for the public sector, will sponsor a free live webinar presented by the International City/County Management Association (ICMA), “2026 State of Public Budgeting: Addressing Concerns with Reductions in State and Federal Funding,” on September 17, 2026, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. ET.

The webinar will examine findings from Euna Solutions’ 2026 State of Public Budgeting Report, based on survey data from 46 public sector finance and budget leaders across North America. The research reveals a widening gap between the growing demands facing public finance teams and the tools and infrastructure available to address them.

Among the report’s findings, 57% of public finance leaders expect further reductions in state or federal funding, while 43% are already managing budget shortfalls. At the same time, many organizations continue to rely on spreadsheets, manual processes, and disconnected systems for critical budgeting activities.

During the webinar, Euna Solutions CEO Tom Amburgey and Mark Funkhouser, president of Funkhouser & Associates and former mayor of Kansas City, Missouri, will explore what these trends mean for public sector leaders and share five actions organizations can take now to strengthen their budgeting infrastructure and prepare for continued fiscal uncertainty.

Webinar attendees will learn:

• Why fiscal uncertainty is changing how public sector budgets are built and defended
• Where manual tools and disconnected processes create the greatest friction and risk
• How the compliance landscape is affecting public sector finance teams in 2026
• How organizations are approaching scenario planning and forecasting amid uncertainty
• Where AI adoption stands and what more forward-looking organizations are doing differently
