FS Business Forum

FS Business Forum is an interactive, finance-orientated event. The focus lies on the areas of
finance, management and leadership that will be discussed by professionals in the form of
speeches/presentations and panel discussions. Additionally, we want to give students the

different opportunities to get in touch with speakers, alumni and students from other business
schools.

FS Coding

At FS Coding, our mission is to motivate FS students to start programming in order to learn

what is, in our opinion, a basic business tool and to teach fundamental knowledge as well as
professional improvement from existing skills. It is not necessary to have a technical or
computational background to learn how to code. It¿s fairly easy, but it needs a lot of
dedication to begin with and that is where FS Coding comes in.

FS Economy & Politics

Political decisions have an immense impact on everyday decision making and this is
especially true in the finance sector. Therefore, the goal of FS Economy & Politics is it to
familiarize students of Frankfurt School regarding these topics. We invite high-ranking
politicians, central bankers and corporate managers to FS for "Fireside Chats" about political
topics. We also visit local political and business organizations. Everyone who is eager to
learn about political topics and is willing to invest a bit of time is invited to join our
initiative.
