ABOUT WAPFIN@STERN

Workshop for Assistant Professors in FINance


A key part of the conference is to allow everyone to connect and get to know each other, so we expect all presenters to attend the entire conference. Since 2015, we have held our annual WAPFIN@Stern conference to promote gender balance in the academic finance profession. The conference aims to create a venue for juniors in finance to discuss research ideas and showcase their work.
