PRIME works closely with the Alberta School of Business to host an evening dedicated to women curious about a career in the finance industry. This annual event is known as Women in Finance: Intro to the Markets. This event was developed as an initiative to showcase the varied opportunities that the finance industry holds, support women's development before entering the finance industry, and encourage a greater number of women to apply to PRIME.
The three-hour seminar consists of an introductory lecture to the financial markets created by the PRIME students, as well as a diverse panel of speakers discussing women in the finance industry. Following the panel, there will be a open networking session. Attendees will have the opportunity to interact with industry professionals and have all of their questions answered. There will also be food and drinks provided.
Panelists will be female representatives from the following companies: Alberta Investment Management Corporation, Chartered Financial Analyst Society of Edmonton, HarbourVest Partners, National Bank Financial - Wealth Management and Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets.
The Women in Finance event will take place on November 23 at 5:00PM and everyone is welcome to attend!
