Speakers confirmed for this event:
Gina Miller – Leader of the True and Fair Party and co-founder of SCM Direct and MoneyShe
Gina Miller is a dynamic businesswoman, activist and now, UK political party leader. She co-founded SCM Direct in 2009 as a democratising, modern wealth management company with values rooted in honesty, fairness and transparency to counter issues in the sector that contributed to poor consumer outcomes and the Global Financial Crisis 2007/8. But her career in Financial Services stretches back to 1996 when she started a specialist financial services marketing agency, SWAY.
In June 2020, Gina launched MoneyShe dedicated to empowering women and educating them on topics such as investing and pensions so they are better able to look after their financial health.
In 2012, Gina co-founded the True and Fair Campaign aimed at increasing UK investor and pension protection and increasing governance and regulations within the financial services sector. Armed with a strong sense of corporate responsibility, Gina continues to be a vocal voice in the UK investment and pensions industry, challenging the unfair treatment of ordinary UK savers and investors and the inaction of the regulator.
Most recently, Gina launched a new political party, the True & Fair Party, with the strap ‘we deserve better’ which will focus on cleaning up politics and electoral reform, and sustainable, pragmatic policy making.
Gina will be joining our panel discussion on the evening, speaking about female financial wellbeing, personal pensions and investments.
Harveen Gill – Founder and Joint Managing Director of HGA Group
Harveen Gill is founder and Joint Managing Director of HGA Group – the UK’s leading international boutique recruitment and consultancy operator within fashion and retail. HGA Group focuses on recruitment from mid management to board level positions. Based in London, their international offices include Dubai, Italy, India, South Africa and Turkey. Her extensive career includes working for John Lewis, New Look and Topshop.
Harveen is passionate about readdressing inequality, particularly within gender and inclusion from within all ethnic minority groups.
The lack of female participation at leadership level in business and generally in investment led to Harveen co – founding EVE – a Female Angel Investor Community in January 2020. The focus is to help “move the dial” in this area where females are overwhelmingly underrepresented, EVE completed it’s first deal in April 2020.
Harveen will be joining our panel discussion on the evening, speaking about building personal finances and addressing the issues women face around raising capital for their business to grow and scale up.
Roneish Myers – Owner at MoneyHeave and Finance Coach
Roneish Myers, is a Forbes Featured Financial Expert, helping Professionals & Entrepreneurs get good with managing
their money. Roneish has worked in the world of Finance for over 10 years. In addition to attaining a First-Class Degree in Accounting and Finance in 2014 her career includes roles at the online streaming giant Netflix, Britain’s leading marketing service group St Ives Plc and Award Winning International Outsourced Sales Agency CPM UK, but something that kept bugging her was how little friends, family, and even co-workers knew about their own finances. Being both a money enthusiast and passionate advocate for economic empowerment it made sense to create a business that would do just that! Which led to the birth of MoneyHeave Ltd – A Financial Coaching Service. Roneish understands that many families are not given the tools and knowledge needed to manage their finances, or maybe they don’t have the time and so simply want someone else to manage it for them. Clients she has worked with have been able to create time freedom for themselves enabling them to spend more time with their families; set up businesses; create multiple streams of income, purchase their dream home, and clear multiple figure debts, enabling them to have more freedom with their money.
Roneish will be joining the panel on the evening, speaking about financial wellbeing, shifting your relationship with money, and financial bold moves.
