The Brokerage was thrilled to celebrate the 1st cycle of candidates completing the Meta Elevate Programme at their graduation event in London’s Cubitt Square.

We’re proud to sponsor the 19th annual LSE Alternative Investments Conference (AIC), the world’s largest student-led conference on Private Equity, Hedge Funds, and Venture Capital. This is an unmissable opportunity for aspiring leaders in alternative investments, and applications are now open for our candidates!

The Brokerage is delighted to announce the winners of the 2024 Worshipful Company of International Bankers (WCIB) Essay Competition, a long-standing initiative designed to inspire young minds and amplify voices on critical societal issues.

On November 19th, 2024, The Brokerage held “The Brokerage Celebrates Success Event 2024” at the central offices of HFW, one of our valued partners. The evening celebrated the hard work, dedication, and achievements of our funders, partners, young people, and volunteers.

On 20th November The Brokerage hosted its annual Careers Conference 2024 at Fidelis Partnership in London, bringing together over 60 talented young people from underrepresented backgrounds for a day of professional development, networking, and inspiration.

Last week, Meta hosted an inspiring Elevate insight session exclusively for candidates from The Brokerage, offering an up-close look at the world of tech and the valuable career paths within it.

Are you ready to explore the world of tech, sales, and product management? The Brokerage is excited to launch the Elevate Meta Programme, an exclusive opportunity for young people to gain insights and skills from one of the most innovative companies in the world—Meta (formerly Facebook).

Through in-depth surveys and interviews, we explore why young people from under-represented backgrounds require additional support to access professional careers. Many face financial struggles, lack the networks to break into the City and encounter barriers their more privileged peers don’t. Yet, they remain ambitious and determined to succeed.

The Brokerage are excited to celebrate the growth of our partnership with Mileway, a leading provider of pan-European last mile logistics real estate, as we work together to create professional opportunities for young people from under-represented backgrounds.
