The 8th Women in Quantitative Finance Conference (WQF)

The date is now confirmed for the 8th annual WQF conference London. Once again will we be announcing a world class speaker line-up soon, offering cutting edge quant finance research, fantastic networking opportunities and passionate panel discussions.

This year’s event will carry a small attendance fee of £30 (£15 full-time academic fee) as the no-show rate has become unmanageable. Please note that the 7th WQF Conference was sold out, so it’s advisable to register promptly to avoid missing out.

We look forward to your participation in this significant event, contributing to the advancement of women in quantitative finance.
