With Experts Teaching Fintech and CFTE’s Co-Founder Tram Anh Nguyen
What are the unexpected challenges of being a woman in the Fintech world? How can we support women to get into finance and FinTech? We asked leading women in Fintech for the answer!
While the current Fintech landscape has come a long way from its lopsided gender balance, we still have a long way to go. Women today are turbocharged to break through the glass ceiling and reach the pinnacle of their capabilities. All we need to do now is give them a chance! We need to normalise inclusion and diversity across the Fintech landscape so it’s no longer just an anomaly.
