Testimonials from FutureLend London 2025 attendees: 

"Attending LMA FutureLend 2025 was a fantastic experience, and it undoubtedly exceeded my expectations in every way. Each speaker throughout the day brought unique perspectives and expertise which are extremely valuable at this early stage in my career."

Megan Douglas, Senior Solicitor - Burness Paull

"FutureLend is a great opportunity for any young professional seeking to position themselves succesfully in the loan markets via networking and first hand contact from experienced professionals in the sector."

Carlos Gutierrez, Loan Syndicate Analyst - Banco Santander

"The event provided fantastic opportunities to network with peers in the industry at a similar level to me, and to hear from leaders in the field about their careers and their advice for progressing ours. The sessions on diversity of thought and building your brand were particularly useful, with plenty of takeaways which we can implement as we develop our careers."

Georgia Sproat, Solicitor - Muckle

"The LMA FutureLend conference was an amazing experience allowing me to connect with likeminded and career-driven individuals in the same industry which would otherwise be difficult to do. The panellists were carefully chosen and each panel gave insight into personal experiences of a career in lending but also advice for those of us who are just starting out in ours. Overall, it was really rewarding to be a part of this conference and I can't wait to see what the LMA have planned for future attendees."

Maggie Kan, Consultant - Alfa Financial Software

"Me personally, coming from a bonds only (no loans) background as a DCM Analyst, I was expecting a Loans only and technical conference which was not the case. I loved the way that the LMA organised this, bringing top in class professionals, some even not related to the finance world, that gave us immense advice without trying to always be politically correct."
