How can I stay informed about the conference?
Join our newsletter and our Facebook Fan Page to receive updates about the Conference.

How many people are you expecting?
We are expecting up to 250 delegates.

What are the workshops?
The workshops are opportunities for delegates to focus on areas of interest, and will be very interactive. The two options are Markets and Business. The former is intended more for individuals interested in the Financial Markets and who would like to pursue a career in Sales & Trading for example. On the other hand, the latter is for individuals who are more interested in Corporate Finance and who would like to pursue a career in IBD, for example. On the schedule page you can see the speakers for each workshop.

Is it normal that I have received no physical ticket?
There is no physical ticket despite having the option to put a delivery address when confirming your place. You will receive further information regarding the event approximately ten days prior to the event. If you are unsure whether your place has been confirmed, feel free to email info@uclfc.org.
