YFLO Kolkata, under the leadership of chairperson Ankita Chitlangia, collaborated with Dhanvesttor, a women-centric wealth management firm, to curate an empowering workshop titled “Kaun Banega A1 Investor” dedicated to financial literacy for women. Held at the extensive co-working space, IdeaPod, the session aimed to break stereotypes around finance being intimidating or dull.
Also, the event focused on empowering women by engaging them in a game-style finance-themed quiz and puzzles. It equipped them with the knowledge regarding financial fundamentals, personal finances, and financial independence. Participants were split into groups and competed in multiple fun yet competitive rounds that covered essential financial concepts.
Round 2 of this session included a mix of brand riddles, logo recognition, and much more. Then, round 3 included teams participating in a rapid-fire round with a competitive spirit. After that, winners, Team 3, Team 5, and Team 2, walked away confidently and financially aware.
