LONDON GALA

A Night of Purpose, Partnership, and Progress

On 4 March 2026, more than 360 leaders from across banking, asset management, private markets, and professional services gathered at the iconic V&A South Kensington for the 100 Women in Finance London Gala, a flagship moment in our 25th Anniversary year.

Together, we raised £600,000+ to advance women’s leadership globally.

The evening reflected not only how far our community has come over the past 25 years, but the urgency and momentum behind the work still ahead.
