On 25 January 2024, Euronext held its first Women in Trading cocktail, a networking event in partnership with Equileap, the leading data provider for gender equality and diversity & inclusion.

Over 40 participants from the trading and asset management communities attended the evening event, an initiative created to further support the position of women in finance.

The Euronext Women in Trading cocktail was the occasion:

• to create a new space to foster sharing, learning and networking opportunities
• to underline Euronext’s commitment to empowering women and reshaping finance to be more inclusive
• to share insights alongside our partner Equileap on gender equality in the financial markets and present our gender equality indices, recently launched together.

ELITE is the European network for private companies, which accelerates the process to access private and public capital markets. Its mission is to support companies by connecting them to capital, skills and network to drive their sustainable growth in the long term.   

Launched in 2012 by Borsa Italiana, ELITE is now part of the Euronext Group. In 2023, ELITE expanded its network to companies in Portugal, the Netherlands and France.

Now in 2024, ELITE has announced a transformation in its visual identity. The revamped logo aligns with Euronext's overarching branding strategy, in a move towards visual cohesion and brand consistency.

For ELITE, the change means an evolution within the Euronext family without changing the core values and commitment that clients have come to rely on. While embracing its fresh new look, ELITE’s dedication to excellence, innovation and empowerment of companies remains unwavering.

This strategic visual transformation is more than a change in appearance: it is a commitment to brand strength. The aligned visual elements will resonate more powerfully across various media channels, creating a lasting impact on clients, partners, and stakeholders alike. The journey toward stronger, more consistent and recognisable brands for both Euronext and ELITE begins here.

 

Today is a significant day for ELITE as we unveil our new logo and visual identity enhancing our brand impact as part of Euronext Group. Being part of the leading pan-European stock exchange is having a multiplier effect on our expansion and network, as our footprint includes a strong presence in many markets. Our focus will remain on serving you first, our clients and stakeholders, to achieve long-term sustainable growth and value. Our new look is making it easier for everyone to understand that we belong to Euronext Group, and we are delivering together the leading European market infrastructure.
