EBF Women in Business

Women in Business: Empowering the Next Generation

Women in Business is a career event organised by the EBF for female students of the Faculty of Economics and Business, designed to empower women at the start of their professional careers. The event combines inspiration and recruitment by connecting students with female role models at the top of the business world and companies actively seeking ambitious female talent. Through personal stories, open dialogue and targeted networking, Women in Business encourages students to pursue their ambitions with confidence and take the next step towards their careers.

The programme starts with an inspiring speaker session, featuring female role models who will share their career journeys, challenges and key lessons from their professional lives. Following the individual talks, the speakers will take part in an interactive discussion panel, giving the audience the opportunity to ask questions and actively engage in the conversation.

After the speaker programme, the event continues with a high wine at The Market Hotel. During this networking session, students will rotate between all participating companies, allowing everyone to have personal and meaningful conversations. You will have the chance to network in an informal setting with top companies such as Deloitte and Van Oord, as well as with fellow ambitious students.

Women in Business is designed to help you gain confidence, broaden your perspective and take concrete steps towards your future career — whether you already have a clear direction or are still exploring your options.
