Movement51’s 2024 Webinar Lineup: A “How To” Series for Aspiring and Experienced Investors

New year, new learning opportunities!

Settling into 2024, we launched an initiative to help individuals across Canada try to get ahead of in the world of investment and early-stage investment. Think: the benefits of investing in a fund, how to support startups on the path to success, protecting yourself as an investor, finding companies to invest in, or getting the basics of becoming an angel investor down pat.

What’s the big deal? Why is it worth investing in your financial literacy, knowledge, and education right now?

Because the great wealth transfer is coming. By 2030, this transfer will bring about shifts in the landscape, such as: 

  • $30 trillion dollars will be shifting into the hands of women from baby boomers

  • Women will control 65% of the nation’s wealth

  • Millennials will control 4x the wealth that they do today

  • Approximately 80% of Canada’s population growth will come from immigration, dramatically altering the wealth market

We’ve said it time and time again (and will continue to): the solution to navigating these changes and chart a course in favour of uplifting women and underrepresented individuals lies in education.

That said, we're thrilled to introduce our “How To” Webinar Series: a carefully curated lineup of 10 webinars designed exclusively for experienced and aspiring investors seeking to get on top of this change in wealth in the upcoming years.

Get a high level look at the transformative journey we’re plotting, where knowledge meets opportunity and innovation intertwines with potential.
