Join Us for ‘Connect Roulette’ to celebrate World Inclusion Day

We are excited to introduce a new initiative from the Leasing Foundation’s Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Group: Connect Roulette!

Connect Roulette aims to bring together a minimum of 300 professionals from the asset finance and leasing industry. A first for our industry, we will pair two individuals from different organisations for a 30-minute chat, either online or in person. This is a fantastic opportunity to expand your network, and to make a personal connection with an industry colleague. How you meet and what you make of the connection will be entirely up to you. Whether it evolves into a mentor relationship, a longstanding sounding board, or making further connections, the opportunity is yours!
