    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The Insight was structured over 3 days, usually with talks in the morning from very knowledgeable speakers covering different areas of Fidelity International and then an interactive presentation task in the afternoon. There were many opportunities to network over the 3 days and direct questions to experts within each field and senior members of the company.
