Fellow shares fintech insights on KIMEP Early Career panel
Fellow Zhanargul Izimova (Kazakhstan, 2018) recently spoke at the Early Career panel session hosted at KIMEP University, engaging students and aspiring professionals on the future of FinTech and the power of mentorship. The event, organized by Early Career Women in Tech® Kazakhstan and the Executive Education Center at KIMEP, centered on how young professionals can enter and thrive in the fast-changing tech landscape.
Zhanargul, FS Consulting Practice Leader for Eurasia Advisory, shared practical advice for those launching their careers, emphasizing that success in FinTech requires adaptability, technical fluency, and a user-first mindset—key qualities that set it apart from traditional finance. Most importantly, she underscored the role of mentorship as essential to professional growth.
“The principle of Giving Back, which I was imbued with during the TechWomen Program, is the basis of a strong professional community,” she shared in a recent post. “By helping today, we shape the leaders of tomorrow.”
