Investia Leuven
Our 4 main activities
1) Portfolio Management
At Investia, we bridge the gap between theory and practice by managing a shared, real-world portfolio. Through a democratic process, members pitch and stress-test investment stocks based on rigorous fundamental analysis. From day one, you’ll actively participate in selecting undervalued opportunities, sharpening your skills in valuation and strategic debate while growing our collective capital.
2) Professional Development
Investia is a career launchpad. Through exclusive events with partners like BCG, Waterland, and BrightWolves, we provide direct access to top-tier internships. From day one, you will benefit from intensive crash courses and peer-led interview prep to secure you an internship or job offer at the world’s leading firms.
3) Friendship
Investia is more than an investment club, it is a warm family of like-minded peers. From padel tournaments and weekend getaways to dinners with our alumni network, we build friendships that last a lifetime. We foster a supportive environment where members grow together, share experiences, and enjoy every step of the journey as one team.
4) Alumni Network

Testimonials by our alumni
Joren Boons
"Founding Investia with close friends was a defining experience. I learned a great deal about investing and what it means to lead an organisation, and I met lifelong friends who share the same passion for finance.
Investia also opened important professional doors and shaped who I am today. I would encourage anyone, regardless of background or experience, to apply and become part of this community."
Annelien Crijns
"Joining Investia was one of the best choices I made as a student. I met inspiring, ambitious people who supported me and helped me grow. Weekly meetings strengthened my skills in financial analysis, critical thinking and presenting, and the career guidance helped me secure the job I wanted. Most importantly, I gained lifelong friendships, and the society continues to build lasting connections through events for members and alumni."
Simon Zenner
"Joining Investia as a founding member remains one of my most rewarding experiences. It gave me hands-on knowledge of corporate finance, valuation methods, investment strategy, presenting and pitching stocks, all of which proved essential as it kickstarted my career in the financial sector. I also built lifelong friendships and, as an alumnus, I still feel closely connected to the organisation. It makes me proud to see Investia continue as one of the most successful student-led funds, driven by talented and motivated members."
Ellen De Schrijver
"Joining Investia gave me far more than I expected. I came to learn finance and meet new people, but ended up gaining both hard skills like valuations and market analysis and soft skills such as critical thinking and speaking with confidence.
Investia opened the world of corporate finance through engaging discussions and, more importantly, its members continually pushed me to grow and achieve my goals."
Thomas Vanderhaeghe
"Joining Investia was a turning point in my university years. Coming from engineering, it gave me the perfect way to learn about business and finance in a friendly, energizing environment, and many members became close friends. It also opened career opportunities I wouldn’t have accessed otherwise. In short, Investia has been an enriching academic, professional and personal experience whose impact I still feel every day."
Charlotte Garcia-Moreno
"As a Law student, being part of Investia has been a genuinely value-adding experience. I learned a great deal through fundamental analysis and valuation work, and the society’s professional approach to portfolio management offered the perfect environment to grow. My experience at Investia will undoubtedly support my future career in corporate and financial law. I strongly encourage fellow Law students with an interest in finance to apply and join. I look forward to meeting you."
