Join us on Wednesday 1 October for the next session in our Lunch & Learn series – a space for knowledge-sharing, critical reflection, and industry insights organised by the Finance, Law & Business Industry Network Group.

We’re delighted to welcome Rising Leader Andrew O’Flaherty, who will share his candid journey of leaving the security of a hedge fund to build his own investment business. In this interactive session, Andrew will reflect on the private and professional decisions behind his move, the opportunities (and volatility) of stepping away from a regular salary, and the mental health challenges of life as an entrepreneur.

After a short facilitated conversation, there will be a Q&A, giving Rising Leaders the chance to explore both the triumphs and disasters that come with turning ambition into reality.

This event is open to all Rising Leaders, regardless of industry background.
