WBE Conference Recap

An incredibly energizing two days of inspiration from amazing speakers, women-owned businesses and corporations committed to diversifying their supply chains at the hashtag#WBEconference in Toronto.

WBE Canada’s president Silvia Pencak, M.A. reminded us of the power of collaboration and persistence, and to keep pushing for a brighter future that will help women reach new heights.

I loved the panel of four remarkable female founders, expertly moderated by Sola Oluwole, PMP. Each hailing from diverse personal and business backgrounds, they shared their journeys of navigating volatile business environments, overcoming challenges, and infusing innovation into their organizations. You are amazing Ingrid Deon, Jacey Schnarr, Sue Bennett, Thyagi DeLanerolle!

Keynote speaker and consciouswarrior Kamshuka Belinda Barrocks delivered a powerful closing address, reminding us to envision the brighter future we want to see and to awaken our Inner Warrior.

It was an honour to emcee this year’s conference and to speak about one of my favourite topics: the Power of Innovation. Thank you for inviting me to be part of the magic, and lighting a fire in me with the work each of you are doing to advance positive change!
