Check in, settle in, and get conference-ready

Reconnect with peers, carriers & industry partners

“Telling Canada’s Story” is a keynote about the power of storytelling, how it defines us, inspires us, and weaves together the fabric of our nation. Drawing on behind-the-scenes filmmaking experiences, Downie shares insights on what makes a story powerful, how leaders, creators, and communities can find their own voices, and why it’s more important today than ever before. This keynote is for anyone looking to make an impact: individuals, organizations, and businesses that want to connect with people on a deeper level. With personal stories, lessons from the field, and a call-to-action, Downie challenges audiences to think bigger about the narratives they shape and the legacy they leave behind.

In this keynote session, Elke will challenge the audience to think differently about what it really means to future-proof wealth. She will explore the gaps between investments, insurance, tax, estate planning and family preparedness and why a collection of sophisticated strategies is not the same as a coordinated plan. Because wealth is not truly protected until the family’s entire house is in order.
