On September 4th, 2024, the Black Opportunity Fund in partnership with The Albany Club presents a compelling panel discussion as part of our Capitalism, Diversity & Inclusion Series: Black on Bay. This session will focus on “Celebrating Success and Overcoming Challenges,” featuring influential Black leaders from Bay Street who will share insights into their professional journeys.
Despite notable strides in diversity and inclusion initiatives, Black representation in executive roles remains scarce, and many Black professionals still experience cultural isolation and subtle forms of racism in their careers. The event presents an opportunity to hear from a passionate group of Black Bay Street leaders as they share their career journeys, the obstacles they’ve overcome, and the ongoing challenges that remain in the financial services sector.
Panelists Include:
- Konata T. Lake, Partner, Torys
- Kurankye Sekyi-Otu, Founder & CEO, Capoeira Partners
- Stanley Julien, Head, Special Accounts Management Unit – Canada, BMO
- Lori-Ann Beausoleil, CEO, Board Diversity Network, Retired PricewaterhouseCoopers Partner
The session is moderated by Colin Lynch, Managing Director & Head of Alternative Investments, TD Asset Management.
The panel discussion is followed by a networking reception and lunch. We thank CIBC for sponsoring the event.
