AI is already deciding who gets seen — in lending, hiring, and capital markets.
When the systems making these decisions are built without diverse perspectives, the gaps aren't theoretical. They show up in outcomes.
This session is a direct conversation about what that means for founders building AI products, and for the investors and ecosystem partners funding them.
We will cover
What diversity changes in AI product and funding decisions
How funders assess governance, team composition, and risk in AI companies
How founders build and communicate trust with investors and users
This event is for
Founders building AI products or integrating AI into their roadmap
Investors, accelerators, and lenders funding AI companies
Ecosystem partners shaping what gets built and who gets backed
Format Lightning talk → Panel → Q&A → Networking
Date: Wednesday, May 27, 2026 Time: 6:00 PM – 8:15 PM Location: Toronto, ON (venue to be confirmed)
