Canada is home to one of the most diverse and vibrant queer communities in the world—nearly 1.3 million Canadians (4.4%) identify as 2SLGBTQI+, and an increasing number are newcomers and global professionals driving innovation, entrepreneurship, and inclusive growth.
Through dynamic panels, networking, and collaboration, this program will bring together queer professionals, diaspora leaders, and corporate partners to explore how identity, opportunity, and global talent intersect to build the future of inclusive business.
When queer global talent thrives, Canada’s economy thrives.
