“For better or worse, tech leaders are in the spotlight … [and] it’s a platform that we have to shape the world.”
Those words come from a recent BetaKit interview with Lightspeed founder and CEO Dax Dasilva about his newly announced nonprofit environmental alliance, Age of Union.
If that name sounds familiar, it’s also the title of a book Dasilva released in 2019 designed to ignite changemakers, or as Dasilva puts it “those ready to take action for our planet and its inhabitants.”
But how can Canadian tech leaders step into the spotlight in service of meaningful change?
Let’s ask Dax.
On Monday, November 15 at 4:00 pm EST, BetaKit will be joined by Dasilva to discuss how his personal journey has informed his views on social impact and what his experience running one of Canada’s publicly-traded tech giants has taught him about scaling change.
Audience participation is encouraged, so come prepared with questions!
