MI Women's Group Meeting, Helsinki 2026

A week on from our Women's Group meeting in Helsinki, it has been encouraging to see so many attendees sharing their reflections on the event.

For us, the most pleasing aspect is not simply that people enjoyed the two days together, but that they left with something useful to take back to their firms.

It encourages conversations to start naturally. Most importantly, it helps people become part of the network from the outset.And there is another reason it works. Everyone else in the room remembers being a red badge too.
