Topical event

In a world that’s constantly shifting, how can you identify the personal finance approaches that are right for you? From making smarter investments to exploring real estate opportunities and understanding the role of private assets, the Vlerick Alumni Legal Club is here with the insights you need to make informed decisions. Join us to hear from expert speakers, take part in discussions – and get actionable tips and advice on building your personal finance strategy.

The evening will start with a keynote from Professor of Finance, Jan Longeval. He’ll give his expert perspective on global markets, the geopolitical climate and private investments. Next, you’ll hear from finance expert Thomas Guenter, who will share a hands-on roadmap for building your personal finance strategy. Finally, there will be a Q&A and a networking reception.

We’d like to thank our generous sponsor, DLA Piper, for hosting this event at their Brussels office.
