Exciting Discussions at the Toronto Global Forum 2024!
From October 16 to 18, global leaders converged in Toronto for the 18th edition of the Toronto Global Forum, centered on the theme "Scaling for a Sustainable Future." This year's discussions focused on how businesses and economies can evolve to meet the challenges of #sustainability while driving growth and innovation.
Sabine Soumare, our executive director, had the opportunity to attend the insightful roundtable "Olympics in Paris: Citius, Altius, Fortius", chaired by His Excellency Mr. Michel Miraillet, ambassador of France to Canada in collaboration with Business France. The #Paris2024 Olympic Games, with over 4 billion global television viewers, provide a unique platform for companies to showcase their excellence on the world stage.
The panel raised important questions:
❓ How can the sports and experience economy create new business opportunities?
❓ What economic benefits can companies expect from involvement in the Olympic Games?
❓ How can businesses capitalize on the reputational gains from Olympic partnerships and sponsorships?
Esteemed speakers included:
Laurent Germain, CEO, Egis
Michel Miraillet, ambassador of France to Canada
Thierry Bon, director counter-UAS business segment, Thales
Allan O’Dette , executive advisor, MNP Canada
Morgan Stevens, senior VP, Global Security Operations and Strategy, Crisis24
