The success of our activities over the past two years has shown us just how much this flexible formula is appreciated!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marking the grand opening of the season, we will be privileged to welcome&nbsp;<strong>Charles Emond, President and Chief Executive Officer, CDPQ<\/strong>at an exclusive networking cocktail party. You'll have the opportunity to hear his views on the current business context, sustainable investment in the face of climate change, and the changing role of the investor, in the company of industry colleagues you'll have the pleasure of meeting again this fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the many autumn events, please note the dinner-conference on October 19 \"<strong>Bringing about change: having the courage to intervene in the finance industry\".&nbsp;<\/strong>hosting Sonya Dreizler (Choir) and Desiree Fixler (VentureESG), who will candidly share their experiences as whistleblowers, as well as the December 7 webinar \"&nbsp;<strong>ESG regulation and disclosure: what should investors expect?&nbsp;<\/strong>\"We'll also be giving you access to the expertise of Rommie Johnson (IFRS Foundation) and Chris Fidler (CFA Institute). &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Consultations to serve you better<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We're always keen to hear from you, and over the coming months we'll be increasing the number of opportunities we have to consult with you to find out more about your needs, ideas and suggestions.
