Developed to provide inspirational insights from industry experts and networking opportunities for students, alumni and young professionals, the seminars are part of a series of international events which LSBF has been hosting since the beginning of the year. Countries visited by LSBF in previous editions include Greece, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Brazil and Germany.

Guest speakers include:
