My accidentally modern career by İlker Yöney, TURKASSET Varlık Yönetim A.Ş.
Abstract:
İlker believes everyone in life has a purpose, even if it's to serve as a bad example. In that spirit, he will talk about his nonsensical career journey from engineering and entrepreneurship, to equity research to academia, to the World Bank, then to private equity and finally (for now) back to entrepreneurship and senior management in the finance industry. Specifically he will talk about his many wrong turns, false starts, bad investments and the bad influences he befriended along the way.
Bio:
