CAW Hub Live: Women Across Borders
What does it really take to build a career abroad - and still stay connected to your roots?
We’re inviting you to an intimate live conversation with two inspiring women from Central Asia who have built international careers in finance - and later created communities that connect people across borders.
This is not a conversation about “success”.
It’s about the real journey behind it: moving countries, starting from zero, making bold career decisions, and navigating life between cultures.
Speakers:
Aigerim Akkulova
Based in Belgium, Aigerim moved from Kazakhstan to France at the age of 10 and later relocated to Belgium.
With a background in financial auditing, she now works as a Commercial Excellence Manager (Benelux) in an international company.
Recently, she co-founded a Kazakh Cultural Centre in Brussels.
Assel Seitova
Originally from Almaty, Assel is a finance professional (CFA) with a global career across multiple countries.
Now based in Palo Alto, Silicon Valley, she is the founder of Sisters - a community for female startup founders from Central Asia and beyond.
In this session, we’ll talk about:
- building a career abroad from the ground up
- lessons from working in finance & making bold decisions
- identity, belonging, and living between cultures
- what it takes to create something bigger than yourself
If you’ve ever felt like you’re living between two worlds - this conversation is for you.
Live conversation. Honest stories. No filters.
This Live session will be held in Russian
