London, UK – Spotlight Reporting, the award-winning SaaS platform for dashboards, consolidations, budgeting, forecasting and management reporting, has expanded its advisory ecosystem by welcoming Diane de Garis FCA, Founder and Managing Director of DNA Ltd, as a Spotlight Champion and Power User. 

Diane joins Andrew Mattner and Peter Harris, who were both named Spotlight Champions and Power Users in December 2025. This growing group of accounting leaders will share their accounting experience, highlight best practices in advisory, and show how modern data tools can make a real difference.

Diane and her team at DNA Ltd have been using Spotlight Reporting since 2018 to help their clients better interpret their financial information and to empower DNA's advisory services. For clients, this has enabled the delivery of timely insights to support smarter decision-making, sustainable growth, and confident execution.

The approach reflects Spotlight Reporting's mission to help forward-thinking accounting firms deliver high-value advisory services with clarity, insight, and strategic impact.

The Advisory Shift From Compliance to Active Dialogue

For Diane, effective advisory work depends on having the right balance between efficiency and insight.

“Spotlight Reporting allows us to honour our name, DNA, by providing meaningful value to every single client. Adding value is central to our mission and is the absolute heart of our business. 

What we value most is how Spotlight Reporting's tools and humans help us with that mission. It’s an extremely efficient tool-set for our advisory team, but more importantly, it gives our clients clear, practical data-driven insights.

Our Spotlight reports aren’t just nice to look at; they really help our clients see what’s driving their performance and where to focus their time and attention.”

Strengthening The Spotlight Community, one Champion At a Time

Richard Francis FCA, CEO of Spotlight Reporting, views the Spotlight Champion network as a way to raise advisory standards across the profession worldwide.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Diane and the DNA team to our network of Spotlight Champions. They represent some of the best minds in advisory, doing meaningful work that adds real depth to our global community. It’s exciting to have Diane on board and to have her level of commercial acumen to help the accounting industry thrive.

Diane is excited to share how she and her team use the Spotlight platform, hoping to inspire other accountants to embrace advisory work and achieve similar success.

Additional Spotlight Champions will be introduced in the months ahead.
