SUMMARY:Canada Club Toronto: Financial Literacy is not nearly enough

What are the most promising and exciting solutions? Certainly digital interventions\, grounded in cutting edge behavioural science\, will be key. \nJoin Canadian Club Toronto on November 4th as we engage in a conversation about the financial challenges Canadians are facing as we emerge from the pandemic\, and how better knowledge\, insight and behaviour can help address them.

SUMMARY:2021 BANFF HERSTORY COMPETITION
DESCRIPTION:HerStory is a story-telling competition that invites women and women-identifying entrepreneurs to tell a panel of champions from various industries who they are\, how they came to their idea and why investing in them will bring innovation\, value and impact: both to their industry and to the future of more equitable access to Canadian capital. \nStudies have shown what women entrepreneurs and investors have known for decades: traditional pitch competitions consistently fail women.

HerStory amplifies a diversity of voices and connects modern entrepreneurs with appropriate investors\, increasing the likelihood of women accessing pathways to success. \nThe submission deadline for the 2021 Banff HerStory Competition has been extended to Friday\, August 13\, 2021 at 11:59 PM Mountain Time. \nAPPLY NOW \nApplications for Inventures Startup Pitch are now closed.
