Roynat Capital

The Technology and Innovation Banking team is proud to have hosted BKR Capital for their Inspire & Aspire - engaging the next generation session and cocktail hour following their AGM. It was an incredible afternoon filled with meaningful dialogue, inspiration and community building. During the event, high school students were able to hear from and directly engage with founders from BKR Capital’s portfolio. Students tackled real-world challenges presented by these founders, working collaboratively to develop and present solutions. This experience was not only an opportunity to inspire young minds but also a moment to hear fresh perspectives that spark meaningful conversations. After the students departed, the day concluded with a cocktail hour and a captivating fireside chat featuring @baron Baron Davis and Ekow Nimako, who shared insights from an Afrofuturistic lens. It was a moment to connect, network, and reflect on the power of innovation.

As presenting sponsors of Canada’s CEO Summit, hosted by the Council of Canadian Innovators | Conseil canadien des innovateurs, Roynat Capital and Scotiabank are looking forward to connecting with the CEOs and innovators of Canada’s fastest-growing tech companies. Together, we’ll discuss economic strategies to build great companies and drive Canadian prosperity for future generations. www.ceosummit.ca
