The Laidlaw Foundation is delighted to announce an exclusive celebration of Laidlaw Women at HEC House (UK) on November 8th, followed by a dinner reception. Whilst this event is mainly targeted towards our Women in Business scholars and Trailblazers, we are also excited to invite 10 female-identifying Undergraduate Scholars from UK universities to join us. 

The day will feature a series of engaging workshops at HEC house. These sessions are designed to provide valuable insights into personal and professional development, networking, and leadership skills.

November 8th Workshop Highlights:

• A bespoke ethical leadership workshop 

• Mentoring, coaching, and networking opportunities

• A funding masterclass with Alexandra Daly, CEO of AA Advisors and Founder of Arosa Capital 

Evening Reception:
The day's events will culminate in a delightful dinner reception on the evening of November 8th at the Gaucho Piccadilly.
