Riviera Partners

It has been a privilege for us at Riviera Partners to join forces with Northzone to co-host an event bringing together a fantastic group of female leaders from the UK Product & Engineering community.   The evening focused on pay equity, representation and career advancement for women, with a focus on the situation in the Product and Engineering functions.   Special mention to the wonderful panel - Yuelin Li, Maryanna Rayko and Merten Wulfert. Prompted by the findings from the report on "Pay equity in European tech, Analysing the gender pay gap in 2024 [https://lnkd.in/e72mxsGP]"published by Ravio earlier this year, the panelists shared their views on the topic.   A big thank you as well to all the participants - we were amazed and grateful to have such an engaged audience - and to the Northzone team for also coordinating all the logistics.   Elena Pantazi Read, Dennis Eriksson, Aitana Giebels van Bekestein, Vaiva Uryzaj, Chloe Arumainayagam Emilie Acien
