About this Event
This Black History Month, we’re holding space for a conversation that’s long overdue.
Join us for Standing Firm in Power and Pride: Confronting Inequities in Social Finance. A powerful panel discussion that dives deep into the systemic barriers that continue to shape Black communities’ access to capital, investment, and economic mobility.
Led by Grace Mosuro, CEO - Aquaintz Consulting and featuring dynamic, purpose-driven leaders from across finance, community enterprise, and social investment, this is not your typical panel. It’s a truth-telling session. A challenge to the sector. And a call to action rooted in pride, power, and progress.
Our panel:
- Amy Gutcher – CFO, Sumerian Partners
- Muna Yassin – CEO, Rooted Finance
- Georgina Wilson – CEO, BUD Leaders
We’ll explore:
- How systemic injustice continues to restrict access to funding and opportunity
- The brilliance and resilience of Black-led businesses and community orgs
- What inclusive finance should look like, and how we get there
Come ready to be inspired, provoked, and empowered.
Who Should Attend?
Finance professionals, social impact leaders, entrepreneurs, policy-makers, funders, investors, and anyone committed to equity and inclusion in economic systems.
Why Attend?
- Because access to finance should not depend on your postcode, skin colour or proximity to privilege.
- Because Black communities are not just underfunded. They are undervalued.
- Because it's time we all stand firm in our power, and build a future where inclusive finance is the standard, not the exception.
