Female Invest x FT Talent: Insights from Leading Women on Financial Success and Wellbeing
On the 21st of March, Female Invest and FT Talent co-hosted an event with over 100 guests at the Financial Times Headquarters in London, Bracken House. Female Invest is a financial education and community platform dedicated to empowering women to achieve financial success and close the financial gender gap.
Our guest speakers Anna-Sophie Hartvigsen (founder of Female Invest), Huda Jawad’s (founder of Muslim Feminist) and Sophia Ukor (founder of Violet Simon) talked about their personal experiences as leading women, providing the audience with insights around investing, personal finances, and financial wellbeing as women. They encouraged and empowered the audience to be independent and take full ownership of their financial success.
Through Anna-Sophie’s hard truths about a woman’s financial life cycle and the gender pay gap, Huda’s insights around Islamic culture, and Sophia’s emphasis on mental and emotional wellbeing, guests left the event ready to improve their financial literacy and tackle their personal finances to see their money grow!
