Thank you to everyone that attended our International Women's Day event, hosted in partnership with Schroders!
200 fantastic individuals from across the breadth of the financial technology industry joined us at Schroders London to affirm their role in walking the talk for change.
We began with interactive talks from four brilliant individuals, each exposing to us the intersectionality of inclusion, and thus our inherent role as an ally to each other. Thank you to our brilliant speakers:
Nadia Edwards-Dashti, Chief Customer Officer at Harrington Starr
Felicitas Coulibaly, Head of Business Development EMEA at Mambu
Joanne Lockwood, Founder and CEO of SEE Change Happen
Kimberley Lewis, Head of Active Ownership at Schroders
This was followed by a brilliant networking session, complimented by a book stall celebrating female authors in the financial technology space and silhouette artists (thank you to Sarah Clark and Alison Russell).
Once again, thank you to everyone that attended. We hope the learns of the day will translate into a consistent commitment to affecting the gender imbalance in the industry, and leave you confident in your role as an ally.
