Breaking New Ground

Inspiring leadership Forum presented by TD — March 5, 2026

Next year's Forum will take place on Thursday, March 5, 2026 and our theme is Breaking New Ground - celebrating women who are driving innovation to create meaningful change in our world with big, bold ideas."

Our featured speakers at the 17th Inspiring Leadership Forum embody this spirit. Lindsay Angelo, with her experience in shaping lululemon's global strategy, drives innovation by crafting conscious business strategies, delivering human-centered foresight, and transformational training; Sarah and Emma Eagle Heart, twins from the Oglala Lakota Nation, are making impactful changes through their storytelling, advocacy, and leadership in Indigenous women-led initiatives; and Kyla Guru, a 21-year-old Stanford student, is revolutionizing cybersecurity, digital privacy, and AI through her company and global initiatives.

We’re thrilled to be able to present these remarkable keynote speakers at the 2026 Forum, and I hope you’ll join us. Tickets are available now, and as an added incentive to get your tickets early, we’re holding ticket prices at the 2025 rates until March 31, 2025.
