Female x Finance (FxF) is a community of 6000 women who are looking to succeed in the finance world. FxF hosts frequent networking events, but it also has a 'career academy' where women can access everything from interview training webinars to career consultation sessions.
Furthermore, FxF is a business partner that guides Finance companies in attracting, hiring, and retaining next-gen female talent. As students looking to break into Finance, founders Léonie and Mélanie experienced firsthand the barriers that women faced in a largely male-dominated sector. And so, FxF was born, with the goal of increasing female presence in the sector by educating women, and matching them with leading companies in Finance.
FxF helps businesses reach young professionals by evaluating their current gender diversity performance, and providing them with highly effective hiring and retention strategies for a more inclusive and diverse workplace. In just two years, FxF grew its international community by 550% and expanded its corporate partners by 240% to over 60, including Rothschild & Co, Bank of America, PwC, and EY. Their proven model will now expand to other countries, guiding women and companies all over the world in making gender diversity in the finance sector the norm, not just a trend.
