SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GPS Capital Markets, LLC, a leading fintech firm offering corporate foreign exchange services, is co-hosting an exclusive event at Burnley Football Club for women in leadership alongside NOVA Community, a peer-to-peer female leadership network in the UK.

GPS Capital Markets has a strong priority to promote women in leadership. As a proud partner of Burnley Football Club, GPS brings you this special event where Lola Ogunbote, a UK-qualified lawyer turned football enthusiast, will share her inspiring journey from Arsenal FC to becoming the Head of Women’s Football at Burnley Football Club. GPS Capital Markets’ Global Director of Marketing, Romy Humphries, will also be a featured speaker. Romy is the Global Marketing Director for GPS Capital Markets, the leader in corporate cross-border payment automation and advisory services. Romy has a passion for challenging the status quo, whether in her professional pursuits, where she creates and leads highly successful marketing departments where none previously existed for high-growth corporations seeking to elevate their game, or within her community, where she serves as an active board member for South Valley Services, a domestic violence shelter.

“GPS Capital Markets proudly stands alongside the Nova Community in the UK, championing the ascent of women in leadership,” said Brandon Parke, President and CEO of GPS Capital Markets. “As we co-host this transformative event, we embrace a shared commitment with like-minded sponsors to cultivate building communities around football and empowering women through sports.” 

The event will feature an evening of insightful discussions over dinner, exploring how key leadership skills transcend industries and the role of women in driving progress. Professionals will have the opportunity to connect with like-minded leaders, learn from Lola’s and Romy’s experiences, and network with professionals dedicated to empowering women in leadership.

“The power of connection transcends what any one individual can achieve,” said Billie O’Connor, who is an Executive Director and Board Member as well as Founder of the NOVA Community. “At NOVA, we truly believe that when female leaders and allies work together, connect, collaborate and share experience, we can create a movement and move the dial. Working with partners who understand our vision such as GPS Capital Markets, enables us to benefit a growing number of current and emerging female leaders to improve the world of work for the better.”
