Previous events

In autumn 2019, 2020 and 2021, we ran virtual events for university students and recent graduates who were looking to start their careers in financial services in the UK. These events were targeted towards people studying a STEM subject, who identify as female or non-binary. These were a combination of in-person and virtual events, attracting top employers from the industry.

“Really great event to access new STEM talent which is very weak talent pool for our profession.“

Chartered Insurance Institute

“Participating in the employer talks was an amazing experience. It gave VMware an opportunity to showcase some of the talented women from within our own company, and provide a platform for them to share stories of their journeys and obstacles they have had to overcome to get to where they are. The speakers loved the Q&A and getting to engage with the attendees.”

Mairead O’Flynn, University Manager at VMWare
