What We Do

                                                                                                                                                      
Personal Development:
We believe that professional success is built on a strong personal foundation. Our personal development programmes cover executive leadership, personal finance, negotiation skills, public speaking, and confidence-building, often through unconventional formats like sports-based networking amongst other themes. These sessions are designed to equip women with the tools to advocate for themselves, both in and outside the workplace.          

‍Professional Development: From macroeconomics, geo-politics to AI, private markets, fundraising, portfolio management, equities, crypto, impact and ESG investing and more, our professional development content keeps our members at the forefront of industry thinking. Through panels, masterclasses, and expert-led sessions, we create opportunities to learn directly from leading practitioners and to sharpen the technical expertise that drives career progression.

‍Women in Family Offices: A dedicated strand of our community focused on the unique dynamics of family office investing, connecting principals, advisers, and allocators for candid conversations on capital, legacy, and long-term stewardship.

‍Social and Side Events: Not every valuable connection is made in a boardroom. Our social calendar, from summer polo to dinners and informal gatherings, creates the relaxed, personal settings where genuine relationships are built. These events complement our events and educational sessions and are often where the strongest community bonds are made.We also host side events alongside major alternatives conferences around the world, including SuperReturn and many others.

‍Roundtable Series: Our roundtable series brings together women in specific job functions, from CFOs to fund managers to allocators, for candid, closed-door discussions with peers who understand the particular challenges of their role. These smaller, focused sessions allow for a depth of conversation that larger events cannot always provide, tackling the issues most relevant to each professional community.

Our Office Sports series has been created to help address the alienation that many women feel when sports are discussed at work and they don’t feel they can participate. Our events include the opportunity not only to play sports at iconic locations, but to speak to female athletes and sports stars about their own journeys playing in often male-dominated sports.
