Marilena was featured in the issue 4 of our digital magazine, where she shared valuable insights about traders, her career journey, and her role leading the marketing team at the group.
How have investor needs evolved over the years, and could you share your insights on these changes?
Investors today are more tech-savvy and demand greater access to data and insights to make informed decisions. The growing trend is towards digital tools, and investors expect fast, responsive platforms that offer real-time market analysis. Additionally, there’s been a shift towards greater transparency, lower costs, and more educational resources. People are looking for both empowerment and personalized experiences and this is an area we heavily invest in.
What is one piece of advice you would give to the younger generation aspiring to build a successful career?
My advice would be to stay true to yourself and follow your passion, but also be willing to learn, adapt, and take risks. Don’t be afraid to ask for help or seek mentors along the way, as their insights and experiences can be invaluable. And, importantly, remember that setbacks are a part of the journey—it’s how you learn and grow from them that makes all the difference.

How do you see the business-motherhood balance?
Balancing business and motherhood is all about setting priorities and maintaining a strong focus on goals. It’s not always easy, but it’s about managing time effectively and sticking to a plan. Flexibility is key, and I think finding the right balance between work and family is something that evolves over time. It’s important to give yourself grace and know that there will be times when one area needs more attention than the other.
What’s coming up next for DOO Group?
At Doo Group, we’re gearing up for some exciting advancements to enhance our global footprint. We’re preparing for a brand transformation and introducing new products and services that will provide even greater value to our clients.
