In partnership with JMOSAIC+, our Employee Resource Group supporting the LGBTQ+ community and allies, Jefferies Frankfurt was proud to return to the Rainbow Day Career Fair at Goethe University for the second consecutive year. It was a privilege to engage with talented and driven students as they explore potential future career paths.

Last Saturday, 20 Jefferies colleagues in Hong Kong teamed up to take on the HYROX Corporate Relay, showcasing incredible strength and team spirit. From wall balls to sled pushes, the competition was fierce, and one of our teams proudly finished as runners-up in their category! #HYROX #Wellness

Happy National Intern Day! Today, we celebrate the incredible contributions of our interns — the future leaders, innovators, and changemakers.

We were thrilled to welcome so many industry leaders, innovators, and investors to London for our third annual flagship Jefferies Vitamins & Supplements Conference. With participation from a broad range of global stakeholders — from high-growth emerging brands to established multinational companies and credible investors — the conversations were insightful, content-rich, and forward-looking. The meticulously curated agenda featured keynote sessions and panel discussions that delved into the most pertinent topics shaping the consumer health landscape. We explored key trends, dynamics, and opportunities across the entire value chain—from leading brands and manufacturers to ingredient suppliers. The valuable insights shared, and the candid exchanges were a testament to the industry's commitment to growth and collaboration and the relentless endeavor of Jefferies to best serve our clients while championing critical discussions in this very important sector. A special thank you to all our speakers, panelists, and attendees for making this such a collaborative and impactful gathering. We eagerly look forward to continuing the conversation next year!

JABLE, Jefferies’ Employee Resource Group for disabled and neurodiverse employees and caregivers, recently partnered with JWIN, our Women’s Initiative Network, to host an inspiring session in Hong Kong with Paralympic gold medalist Ho Yuen-Kei. Beyond her achievements on the boccia court, Yuen-Kei is a passionate advocate for accessibility, using her platform to spotlight wheelchair-friendly spaces across the city. As one of Hong Kong’s top athletes, Yuen-Kei shared powerful reflections on resilience, equity, and leadership. Attendees also had the chance to try boccia, a precision-based sport that emphasizes strategy and focus.
