London Business Experience 2026
The London Business Experience (LBE) is ECU’92’s annual career trip, organised by the LBE Committee. Each year, we take a select group of students to London — the financial centre of Europe — for an up-close look at leading firms and the fast-paced world of international finance. Through company visits, networking opportunities, and first-hand exposure to different work environments, LBE gives you the tools to make more informed decisions about your future career.
