Breakout Sessions

We’ve arranged a stellar lineup of speakers to join us at this year’s event, including a mix of familiar faces and new leaders speaking at President’s Program for the first time. As part of the agenda, we also have planned small group sessions where you will have a greater opportunity to ask questions on the topics of interest to you.

Ask an Executive

There will be open forums with Executives where they will be sharing their expertise in their respective areas and updates on current initiatives. These intimate small group discussions will provide a chance for attendees to engage with various executives on key topics and to have their top questions answered.

Portfolio Management Perspective

You will have the chance to hear from the IGM Portfolio Management teams about various investment topics. While you may see some familiar faces leading these sessions, you will also be introduced to some of the Portfolio Managers who lead our equities, fixed income, and asset allocation teams.
