Gloria Monfrini

In this discussion with top UK Angel investor Gloria Monfrini, we demystify money and investments and explore why women still shy away from the topic in general settings. As a graduate from Harvard Bussines school, former analyst for Morgan Stanley and one of the first 500 employees of Uber, she believes it is vital for women to consistently participate in discussions about money. The more we talk about money, the more we understand how to manage it. Learning how to capitalise our assets gains us the independence to be exactly who we want to be.
