    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The insight introduced participants into the firm's operations as well as the technology division. For the first half of day 1, all spring week participants (i.e., participants on different streams) were placed in the same room for breakfast. This was followed by a culture panel and a session for networking. After lunch, those on the technology stream were separated and introduced to the programme's sponsors.
