FINANCE FOR FEMALES

On Tuesday, November 18, Capitant Leuven hosted the annual Finance for Females event, an interactive evening designed to empower and inspire the next generation of female leaders. An evening where ambition met opportunity.

Students engaged in open conversations in a relaxed atmosphere and discovered diverse career paths beyond traditional finance through fishbowl discussions. They asked questions, shared ideas, and heard firsthand from top professionals across multiple industries. This year, four inspiring speakers from different sectors shared their unique career journeys, the challenges they faced, and the valuable lessons they learned along the way.

Speakers: 

• Stephanie Grysolle: BNP Paribas Fortis
  
• Yasmine Vega Corrales: Ackermans & van Haaren
  
• Kathleen Destaebele: Moore Belgium
