Students Connect with Professionals at Stamford Futures Speed Networking Event
Students and families gathered for the latest Stamford Futures Speed Networking event, focused on careers in finance, accountancy and professional services.
The evening adopted a speed networking format, with students taking part in five 15-minute rotations. This allowed them to meet a range of professionals, hear about different career journeys, explore routes into industry and ask questions about the realities of working in their chosen fields.
Following the structured sessions, attendees had the opportunity to continue conversations during an open networking period, building connections and exploring areas of particular interest in greater depth.
We are extremely grateful to our guest speakers for giving their time and sharing their expertise so openly. Many of our speakers were Old Stamfordians and members of our parent community, working across areas including investment banking, private equity, audit, tax, insolvency, wealth management, corporate finance, insurance and commercial law.
Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to another successful Stamford Futures event. We look forward to welcoming more professionals and students to future networking opportunities.
Our next Stamford Futures event will explore careers in law and the legal sector. If you are an Old Stamfordian, parent or member of our wider community working in these fields and would like to share your experience with students, please get in touch to find out how you can get involved.
