Highlights Bright Network Festival 2017

On Monday 11th September 2017 we welcomed 2,300+ students to central London to connect with 75 leading firms at Bright Network Festival.

It was our biggest event ever, with hugely popular panel discussions, sector overviews and skills sessions from our partner firms. Our Premier Sponsor UBS hosted two sessions on Investment Banking which were standing room only.

  • 62% BAME (Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic)
  • 45% female
  • 62% from non-selective state schools
  • 28% studying STEM subjects
