Women Funding Women: "Be Bold Challenge" Brunch

In partnership with Guardian Partners, we invite you to an exclusive brunch at the prestigious Globe & Mail Centre. Join us for the launch of a landmark initiative designed to fundamentally transform the landscape for women-led ventures in Canada.

This is a strategic assembly of up to 40 trailblazing founders, funders, and ecosystem partners dedicated to bridging the funding gap - promoting genuine equity in Canada's entrepreneurial landscape.

Over a gourmet brunch, we will address the "missing women entrepreneurs" - those who could be thriving if gender-based barriers were dismantled.

We are honored to host Marwa Abdou, Senior Research Director at the Canadian Chamber of Commerce’s Business Data Lab. Marwa will present exclusive insights from the BDL’s latest report, “Women Entrepreneurs: Canada’s Biggest Missed Business Opportunity.” She will examine why progress for women-owned businesses remains glacial despite years of investment, and identify exactly where the opportunities for growth lie.

Following the keynote, you will participate in a facilitated roundtable discussion. Each table is diligently curated to include a mix of voices - founders, funders, and ecosystem partners - to foster radical candor and actionable solutions.

Together, we will build the ecosystem necessary to reduce funding disparities and define the future of women in business.

Expand your network: You are invited to stay from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. to engage with the Western Demo Day companies showcasing their ventures.
