September 18, 2025 | Pfefferberg Theater, Berlin

Agenda

In the cultural heart of Berlin, the historic Pfefferberg Theater transforms into a curated world of feminine elegance, bold ideas, and smart capital. Reimagined as a boutique-style setting, this is where women investors come not just to listen, but to lead.
