This International Women’s Day, join us in the City of London at Man Group or online for an inspiring International Women’s Day event that celebrates everyday heroes and explores how small actions taken together can create meaningful and lasting impact.
Thank you to Man Group for kindly hosting this year’s event.
Under this year’s IWD theme #GiveToGain, we’ll spotlight individuals who are driving positive change through generosity of knowledge, advocacy, and support; demonstrating that when we give to others, we all move forward.
Through two engaging panel discussions, Everyday Heroes and Sponsorship: How to advocate for yourself and others, attendees will gain practical insights and real-world examples they can take back to their member firms and put into action immediately.
Open to all employees from our member firms.
