Governance: Capital, Gender, and the Power of Inclusive Leadership
Inclusive governance—particularly gender-diverse leadership in capital allocation—can drive stronger financial performance, social equity, and long-term sustainability.
Our 2025 provided a compelling keynote address from International keynote Dr. Ruth Shaber, founder of the Tara Health Foundation and co-author of The XX Edge: Unlocking Higher Returns and Lower Risk. With more than three decades of experience spanning medicine, philanthropy, and impact investing, Dr. Shaber drew on data, case studies, and her pioneering work with the Diverse Investing Collective to challenge traditional governance models and offer a bold vision for a more equitable and effective future.
This event is held to honour the memory of our colleague Phil Spathis and his commitment to the principles of good corporate governance.
