Welcome to Campus for Finance

Welcome to Campus for Finance! Each year the Campus for Finance e.V. association organizes two finance conferences: The “WHU New Year’s Conference” and the “WHU Private Equity Conference”. Both conferences are run by students of the WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management, Germany's leading business school. Renowned corporate and academic speakers present, discuss, and challenge their future plans for the financial industry. You can also take advantage of exclusive recruitment opportunities by impressing our partners with your professional and social abilities.

We are "Uniting the World of Finance" by jointly designing its future. See for yourself and apply to participate in these unique events!
