After thoroughly enjoying my time as Executive of Outreach in FinTech Society, the opportunity of becoming President fills me with tremendous enthusiasm.

Co-managing a start-up event with Pareto Economics and Adakas and being offered an internship best showcases my ability to impress. Currently, leading a team of two to create a week of talks, packaged as DIF: Diversity in FinTech. Personally, I believe promoting opportunities for women and BAME individuals in finance must be integral.

Next year, I endeavour to:

  • Firstly, continue reaching out to executives of FTSE 100 companies and putting on talks for the members of FinTech Society.
  • Connect schools with UCL and FinTech companies. We will provide coding and finance lessons - taught by UCL’s very own - to children with a passion to work in FinTech.
  • Organise UCL FinTech Conference/Flagship Event, enabling our members entrance to the top-most technology firms.
  • Penultimately, continue with projects like DIF and SWIT, advancing women and BAME representation in the financial technology sector.
  • Finally, we are working on attracting new members to achieve exceptional year-on-year member growth that makes us Europe’s Largest FinTech Society.

I will continue reaching out to all London universities to ensure the highest quality events for our members. If this is what you want from FinTech Society, then please vote for me.

 

Thank you,

Saket Chadalavada.

Executive of Outreach for UCL FinTech Society
