Corporate Finance IRL: Cash, Choices & Consequences

What does working in finance actually look like beyond spreadsheets, formulas and market headlines?

Join Vanessa Tanuwijaya, a corporate finance and investment professional with over 15 years of experience across Singapore and Indonesia, for an interactive workshop that brings finance to life through real business decisions.
