We bring women together to build essential relationships, providing access to business opportunities and community.
Level 20 hosts a broad range of bespoke in person and digital networking, development and mentoring events.
Membership events
Targeted events for Emerging Talent, Future Leaders and Senior Leader cohorts ensure valuable peer to peer connections are made, in person and online. Facilitated by external and industry experts, technical and professional skills training and workshops are also run throughout the year.
Industry engagement
Level 20 is regularly invited to speak at industry leading events including SuperReturn, IPEM and all the major UK private equity summits, with senior leaders put forward as panel speakers and discounted tickets available through the member portal.
International events
Networking and career development events are hosted by our 13 international chapters across 20 countries, to build connections and share best practice and personal experience, for example, on family leave.
Annual event
Our flagship annual event brings together senior industry leaders, stakeholders, mentors, mentees and members. In 2025, close to 400 people attended our 10th anniversary event at the National Gallery in London.

Voices from across the industry
In an industry where so much still hinges on being in the right room at the right moment, Level 20 has created a room of its own… filled with women and male allies who champion, mentor, challenge and elevate one another. For many of us, this is the first time we had access to a network that sits outside our firms.

It was certainly the case for our generation that women weren’t encouraged to think proactively about networking. Nobody sat me down when I started work and said that the most important thing you can do is build a constructive set of relationships with people who can grow with you as you progress in your career and who can in turn connect you with other people. I think that’s unbelievably important; it doesn’t matter what sector you work in.

Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to receive ongoing support and sponsorship from the founders and senior leaders of Level 20. Their guidance, feedback, and the opportunities they’ve extended to me have been instrumental in my growth.
As I continue to develop my career, their encouragement remains a meaningful source of support.NINA KRAUS

Since we launched Level 20’s first international chapter, the DACH network has become a catalyst for change in private equity. In less than a decade, our community of female investors has grown from a handful of pioneers to a dynamic force shaping deals across Germany, Austria and Switzerland – and we’re gearing up for an even bigger leap forward.
