RiseUp Europe
Empowering inclusivity in leadership
The power of inclusive leadership
We have always known how important it is to be inclusive especially at the leadership level.
RiseUp is our global program that answers the call to champion more diversity across the money ecosystem. We provide tomorrow’s women leaders with the network, tools and techniques needed to help them strategically advance to their next career level.
RiseUp is an explicitly inclusive program for all who identify as women.
Empowering women leaders
Since 2018 over 150 women from across the world have participated in our global RiseUp program, with more than 60% of participants being women of colour. Our RiseUp Academy provides aspiring women leaders with a unique opportunity to strategically create an effective roadmap for their desired career path.
