Diversity fuels creativity, strengthens problem-solving abilities, and aligns with an increasingly global market. Ensuring individuals from all backgrounds—regardless of gender, race, socioeconomic status, or geographical location—are represented and valued, not only creates a fairer environment, but also tap into a broader spectrum of ideas and perspectives. Building an inclusive investment landscape isn’t just a social imperative; it’s a business advantage for our state.

Our special guest is Monique Woodard, Founding Partner at Cake Ventures, a venture capital firm that invests in the future of technology driven by major demographic changes such as aging populations, the majority-minority shift and the increased spending power of women.

We are also delighted to have Cheryl Mack, CEO and Founder of Aussie Angels and Investor also share her ideas and experiences in fostering an inclusive landscape.

Following the talks by these two incredible international and national speakers, there will be a facilitated and interactive session where you will have the opportunity to share ideas about how we can ensure that our investment and innovation community can continue to evolve to be a thriving, diverse ecosystem.
