Transcripts
of the European investment fund I'm very
happy to welcome you to this webinar
today that is dedicated to the official
launch of our early career program
before we kick off I would just like to
let you know that this webinar will be
recorded apart from the last uh part
which is the Q&A session hi everyone
warm welcome also from my side my name
is Mariana just like Anna I'm also part
of the fs recruitment team here at the
European investment fund very happy to
be with you today to tell you about our
new early career program and before we
start just a few words about what you
can expect from this webinar today so
our chief executive Mar foad will kick
up the webinar with a brief introduction
after that we're going to have a
conversation with Miguel Our Guest here
today uh after this an will tell you
some more details about the program and
in the end we'll leave some time for
your
questions but first things first um
maret the floor is yours thanks a lot hi
everybody and welcome to this uh webinar
I am indeed Mario I am from Finland and
when I studied my career or when I
studied 40 years ago I would never have
you know expected that I would end up
here in Luxembourg in the European
investment fund I had totally different
plans and I suppose many of you have
many different plans that's why I will
explain a bit about I will talk a bit
about European union and then I will
talk a bit about the European investment
f fund you know European Union might be
something very abstract for you and its
institutions may be very abstract to you
but let me use one example which can be
close to your heart which is about
education and study studying you know
there's a European Union uh policy on
education where we the policy tries to
make the the the education in different
member states more inclusive and more
aligned and there are certain targets
that the member state States uh should
be um achieving and when the European
commission makes proposals like budget
based proposals like the Erasmus program
then this program is approved and the
budget of it is approved by the European
Parliament and by the European Council
and why what is then our role the
European investment fund well we are not
a body which is managing grants or
subsidies we are a European uh Union
body which is a financial arm of the
European Union we are providing
financing to SNES and not only that we
are all also providing financing to
students through student loans in
certain countries for example so when
you think about the European Union the
European commission making a proposal
for a policy action like Erasmus program
then you have the Parliament and Council
approving this uh proposal it's
implemented by an agency of the European
Union and then in the end we e if we can
complement this action through the
financing that we have a available for
students but to be honest this is only a
very small part of our business the
biggest part of the business what we do
we are providing Venture Capital
financing and we are providing
guarantees to Banks this is in very
simple terms uh what we do now why would
you come to work for us
well European investment fund has 700
people for all all over the world for
example me from Finland Anna is from
France Catia Portugal you see and here
we are sitting together and working
towards a common goal and this is
exactly what is interesting in the eif
you can work in different areas from
legal from risk management compliance
management HR communication
or become operational in the operational
teams and what you see here is how the
European Union can bring value and how
we in the European investment fund we
can provide impact through the financing
what we do you know there are something
like 24 million smmes in the European
Union and there are several millions in
our portfolio who we have been able to
support either for example through
programs guarantee programs which help
them to provide less collateral uh to
the bank or have a longer maturity or
even have a better interest rates so
what we are doing we do the good we are
trying to help the and facilitate the
life of the small and mediumsized
Enterprises in the European Union and
also abroad from time to time like
Ukraine you will hear soon from Ukraine
what the E is doing there and the last
word Luxembourg is really great place to
live thanks a lot for your
attention thank you thank you very much
thank you very much Mar for the for the
introduction good let's now move to the
second part of our webinar uh for this
purpose we have invited U Miguel to to
join us today uh as we thought it would
be super interesting for you to hear
about his experience as he joined the E
several years ago through a similar
initiative as the ECP Mari do you want
to kick it off with the first question
yes indeed so Miguel please tell us a
bit about your path at how did it all
start and where are you now thanks a lot
hello
everyone H I was studying economics I
did my bachelor and my master in
economics and actually finals was not
the main theme of my studies but I
really wanted to contribute to the
European project and to work for the
European Union I started looking at
internships in several European
institutions and got this amazing
opportunity that was slightly outside
the scope of of my studies because it
combined Finance with it the internship
that that I applied to at the beginning
was on data analytics and the project
was quite interesting it was to gather
all the data about the European smmes
and startups that YF was sponsoring at
the time uh through its Venture Capital
funds mostly uh and to identify them in
public databases in order to attract
information and to to combine the
information that we had in our systems
with public available information uh for
what to measure the impact that we
wanted to have uh and we were already
having but to measure this uh in the
real
ecosystems I I was supposed to say only
for a couple of months uh the pro the
intership was I believe five months long
uh and I thought I would be soon back
home and to continue my career that
actually reality proved me completely
wrong I I stayed here for 10 years and
I'm quite excited um the the opportunity
that appeared after was to join as you
mentioned uh a graduate program that
existed at the time uh similar to to
this one and uh to work at the time at
uh reporting uh it was to prepare the
investor reports for Funda funds for
that were investment programs basically
um operating in the Venture Capital
markets but more focused on national uh
programs um alongside investors and
governments so I had this this chance I
stayed for I lot learned a lot about
private Equity Venture Capital Concepts
that my studies were not
um by this level of information and
um later on there was this chance to
apply to another position at the
fundraising team the fundraising team is
the one that is in contact with
investors um most most of them
governments uh and development banks in
each one of the member states to
convince them that eif has something to
offer and to help them building their
own V capital and private Equity
ecosystems um and I stayed there for a
few years until until now mostly focused
on Iberia um and managed to to
contribute to this greater impact that
the if is
delivering great thanks thanks a lot for
for sharing Miguel um by the way guys if
you do have any questions for Miguel uh
keep in mind that we have the Q&A
session at the end of the presentation
or exactly that that
purpose so again we hear a lot um about
working for a purpose here at CF can you
share with us in your personal
experience what does it mean for for you
to work for a purpose
at we have to keep in mind that our main
shareholder is the European Union and is
a financial institution we are in the
end an asset manager of the European
Union but
it's we don't work like a typical asset
manager normally you would expect the
board to be solely and only concerned
about our financial returns this is not
the only concern of our
shareholders um we are aiming at
generating impact real impact in several
areas that are priorities policy areas
for the European Union
namely Innovation
competitiveness social
diversity uh climate action obviously
and also cohesion so that we can make a
an impact not only in the strongest
countries and the strongest Economist
but a bit all over Europe and there are
not so many
institutions uh that combine this
private side the opportunity to work in
finance which most of us uh learn to
like uh with the other passion that many
of us have that is public
policy combining this is is in a way
contributing to the greater good if our
shareholder is the European Union they
are expecting us to deliver on those uh
Society goals that that I
mentioned and the contribution to the
greater good goes in a way it's uh
giving back to our countries right um
and I didn't find many institutions who
give us uh this
opportunity the good thing of the
if it's a relatively small institution
compared to to others and it works
almost as a it has a lot of this startup
Spirit uh we get to know very easily
many colleagues uh the managers are
quite engaging and give us a lot of
support um so each individual obviously
is part of a much bigger machine uh but
we know that our small contribution
every day uh makes an overall impact and
we can see it uh we can see the
entrepreneurs that get financed
somewhere in Europe uh the people who
have dreams and get these dreams funded
uh because there was a program that some
colleague developed out of luxg uh this
this reach is not always visible in many
institutions and here we really know the
stories we know the people we support
and that's great
yeah sounds
great thank you thank you Miguel um what
would be the most memorable event in
your career at the so far what's what
comes to your mind that that was the
first investment program that that I
raised in my home country and it was a a
really great experience because I never
thought like Mar was saying I never
thought to be to be here and to be in
that position and mostly so so soon in
my career the I I remember when I joined
as a graduate we were meeting with the
team so normal development business
development meetings to think where
should be focused our activity this year
and because in Portugal the private
equity and Venture Capital activity was
not so strong for a a couple of years
and we didn't develop many initiatives
there uh for for about 10 years I I
raised my hand I said what if we come up
with this initiative Venture Capital
program significantly size a large
one and my my colleagues at the time
some of them got excited but there were
also some people skeptical about it
right it's normal I was the youngest
member of the team uh we didn't have
much activity much traction in that
country uh so some of them looked at me
and well let let's see what you can do
with the support of more senior members
of the team uh the great support of my
managers uh who believed in
me I managed to create this opportunity
it's not really for or or for myself or
for our team at the end the I think six
months later the the program was signed
uh it was on the ground it selected
Venture Capital teams and right now
those teams are already invested in 50
startups but there are entrepreneurs
that got funded because we had that idea
at the time and it was not only my job
it was not only my contribution there
was a full team working for this and for
a small country like the one I know
best a small initiative or an initiative
like this makes a whole difference the
number of jobs that it creates the
talent that it retains or
attracts I think this was and getting it
signed and seeing it today the results
and the
impact that's probably the most
memorable
defense wow yeah that sounds uh that
sounds really really impressive thank
you thank you for sharing again um now
let's um Talk a bit about Luxembourg so
uh most of our audience today is uh
probably not located in Luxembourg but
really all over Europe uh and uh so we
would be uh
very curious to to hear Miguel uh what
is your view on on Luxemburg how do you
enjoy your life uh here in
Luxembourg well marot said it I also
like it very much there is this myth
that Luxembourg is
small it's that comes with huge
advantages which I'm more than happy to
to share from my private experience and
and of course many people might have
different opinion this is a personal one
uh Luxembourg first of all is a very
international country I think 50% 60% of
the people I meet uh even Beyond they
are foreigners uh there are people who
have arrived in lurg in the last few
years they are uh in the same position
basically I feel that we were all on the
same boat um they are eager to make
connections to uh build beyond the
business you know great friends yeah
it's very easy to reach out to people
because we are the same situation
because we are all living in a country
that is not ours but that is very well
prepared to receive these communities
it's not it's not by chance that we are
all here the fact that we have European
institutions in in the city center uh
and very close to the city center by the
way it's so easy to get to town hall and
and just to to to town and just just get
a drink and meet friends and uh
everything is rual what 5 10 minutes
distance public transportation is for
free this is a huge selling selling
point um and European institutions
create a bit of an environment that also
makes it much easier to to meet new
people that are in similar circumstances
in terms of networking is a very smooth
country and no one is really closing uh
themselves or or there are not closed
groups that we cannot access
um I mean there is one point that
Luxembourg is that for me counts a lot
it's extremely Green Country uh very
there are many opportunities to do other
activities like uh uh going to to a hike
uh in the forest it's really nature uh
is is really at the core of the of the
country and it's extremely well
connected it's very easy to if you want
to have a bit more of uh this excitement
that you find in one or two Capitals in
Europe it's so easy to get to Paris or
to get to Brussels Frank for London uh I
mean I've benefited from that as well
because I had friends foreigners um that
were xoxx in many of those cities and
probably being at the heart of Europe
also helps a lot no no
absolutely uh good thanks a lot uh
Miguel I think we all kind of share more
or less the this experience of Luxemburg
um as a last question maybe in a few
words what would be your recommendation
for our audience today who is
considering to join this early career
program well that's that's a big one um
I think each one of us has a different
career aspiration
and if I would summarize it in one word
is be
authentic don't speak up uh share your
ideas with your manager
not all of our ideas will become
successful obviously some of them um
needs a bit of work and but eif is a
very safe place for growth a very
um it's an amazing environment uh for uh
where you have space to to speak up to
share your your thoughts and more
importantly even uh to
learn sometimes even the not so
successful projects and I had many um
were the best learning opportunities at
least to myself and in af you have the
space
to to to fail in in a way uh without
having any kind of pressure um because
this startup spirit that I was
mentioning before um it's very unique to
the institution that there are not so
many organizations that work at the same
time with governments and with founders
of startups and we need to be a bit in
the middle right uh so to apply I I
fully recommend I'm very happy with the
fact that you are launching this program
H and uh be yourselves I think this is
the best advice I can inde yeah totally
uh thanks again Miguel this was the the
last question hopefully manag to tempt
some of the audience to join us here in
Luxembourg and join our and join our
program uh now in this third part of the
session an and I will tell you a bit
more details about the program and uh
let you know how you can join a
pro um so you might have probably see it
on uh seen it on our on our LinkedIn on
our Instagram if uh if you are if you
are connected to us on the social media

on social media please do we will be
very happy to um to see you there so in
2024 so this year uh the eif is
celebrating its 30th Anniversary which
is um an amazing date for us we are I
think all very happy and and very proud
um about about this um and we would like
to um share with you just a few a few
memorable um a few memorable figures of
what we have managed to achieve so far
during these 30 years of um 30 years of
of existence so can you imagine that uh
we as eif uh have supported in 30 years
one in 12 small businesses uh in Europe
which is uh well I think a very very
very great and and and impressive number
um in terms of um Euros of uh investment
that that
represents 37 billion of Euros that the
eif has committed uh for financing uh
the support of smmes in um in Europe um
what about the eif today a few figures
so we are around 700 uh staff members
700 employees with a gender balance that

program that you have here in the house

mention of course yes it's the it's the

mentioned it's it's it's not a big
Capital you can you can cycle around and
move around without the need of a car
and finally but not the least important
uh you will have your paid annual
leave and I think I think this was it
for this
part perfect let's now um talk about our
recruitment process as um as I imagine
um a lot of you have questions about how
the recruitment process is going to to
look like for the for the ECP uh first
things first uh a date uh to remember to
keep in mind it's the 30th of April it's
the deadline for applications for our
ECP uh so keep in mind 30th of April uh
in front of you on the QR code if you if
you scan the QR code it leads you
directly to our career portal to the
application page where you can directly
apply to uh to the ECP so don't hesitate
to uh don't hesitate to to scan it to
scan it already so as a first um as a
first step for us is uh of course to
screen your CV and your motivation
letter so here um please keep in mind
that we are receiving um a lot of
applications for the for the for the
prog program um so it's super important
for for for you to to write uh to write
um a nice and uh and and beautiful CV um
a good motivation letter as well that
reflects your real motivation and
interest to join the eif and to join the
the the early career program at at eif
um also we do not recommend you to use
um any artificial intelligence tools um
to do that because we really want to
hear from you uh as Miguel said we want
you to be authentic and uh and uh and we
want to know who who you are and what
really motivates you to to join to join
the the the eif today um so as a as a
Next Step um there is the HR phone call
that is optional so we might call you uh
because we need to clarify an aspect
from your from your CV or about your
diploma
or we have a question on on motivation
so so we we we may call you for for that
purpose uh the next uh step in the
recruitment process is the online
assessment so um for that you only need
um your your your laptop and uh a few
minutes of of calm at at home in order
to to be able to to perform the the the
online assessment the next step is the
online interview so everything so far as
you have seen is taking place online so
super convenient uh for for you guys um
the online interview takes place with um
several colleagues from um from the eif
including HR um where a few questions so
some questions will be explor explored
uh with you U like motivational uh
questions uh amongst um amongst others
and for the successful candidates of
course the next and the last step is to
uh receive the employment offer and uh
to proceed to the onboarding um in uh in
April uh in
October in October uh later this year uh
one important uh thing that you you
should also keep in mind is that we only
accept applications uh through our
official career portal so we do not
accept any spontaneous applications by
email or from any other sources um
remember uh to scan the QR code that
leads you to the career portal and apply
directly
