WHAT IS THE WMI ATLANTIC LEADERSHIP ROUNDTABLES?
Moderated by special guest, these small group discussions are designed to explore how business leaders across Atlantic Canada can work more intentionally together. We'll focus on strengthening collaboration, unlocking growth within key sectors, and identifying practical steps to increase competitiveness and long-term prosperity in our region.
Rather than policy debate, the Roundtables centre on leadership, ownership, and action. Participants will examine how entrepreneurs, operators, and next-generation owners can contribute to a stronger, more resilient Atlantic Canadian economy, and what coordinated effort across business, capital, and innovation ecosystems truly requires.
These conversations are invitation led and curated to ensure depth, candour, and meaningful exchange.
CAN I BRING MY SPOUSE?
Spouses are not included in the guest list for this particular event due to careful consideration of various factors, including venue capacity constraints, budgetary considerations, and the specific nature of the event. While we value the support and companionship of spouses, we have determined that limiting the guest list to individuals directly involved is necessary on this occasion.
HOW CAN I SUPPORT OR DONATE TO WMI?
To make the program accessible to as many deserving CEOs as possible, the Institute relies on the generosity of donors/sponsors who contribute to help with the overall costs of the program, which exceeds $12,500 per participant. To donate, please email Tracy Bell tracy@wallacemccaininstitute.com
