Global Youth Investment Summit
The Global Youth Investment Summit (GYIS) is our flagship annual event brings together students from around the world for a dynamic, hands-on learning experience. Participants engage in case study competitions that test critical thinking and problem-solving skills, pitch stocks in the Global Stock Pitch Competition to panels of professional investors, and challenge themselves with finance quizzes that sharpen their knowledge of economics, investing, and personal finance. They also attend interactive workshops and fireside chats led by top finance leaders, gaining insights into career paths and industry trends, while networking with like-minded peers and professionals across various financial sectors.
The Summit is more than an event—it’s a global stage for students to learn, compete, and grow as future leaders in finance and investing.
