We are excited to invite you to our upcoming Deals in Heels networking event!

The network is aimed at women working in M&A, representing all levels of experience. We at KPMG recognise the importance of supporting and empowering women in these fields. The collective goal for the network is to foster an inclusive environment where knowledge and inspiration can flourish.

For our next event, we are honored to welcome Nanna Mik-Meyer as our keynote speaker. Nanna is a professor at CBS and is currently engaged in a research project on gender and career in academia. She has recently published a book (in Danish) with this title, as well as a number of international articles focusing on gender, career and networking in academia. Nanna serves as a member of the management team of the Power Investigation (Magtudredningen) investigating power dynamics in human interactions. Through group discussions, Nanna will draw parallels to her research and the finance environment for women.

The event will commence with a warm welcome at 17.30, followed by Nanna Mik-Meyer's engaging presentation. Subsequently, there will be an opportunity for attendees to engage in a Q&A session with Nanna and break out into smaller groups to share experiences, address challenges, and explore opportunities for driving positive change. Afterward, we will transition to networking, refreshments, and tapas through the evening until 21.00.

We look forward to your participation and the enriching dialogue that lies ahead.
