PRESENTATION - Lessons in Leadership from a Canadian Business Icon - JON LOVE

Join ACG Toronto for another must-attend edition of The Influencers Series on Tuesday, February 11 at the TMX Broadcast Centre. The event will feature a one-on-one discussion with the iconic and irrepressible Jon Love, Executive Chair and Founder of KingSett Capital, Canada’s leading private equity real estate investment firm.

Jon will talk about the critical ingredients of business leadership and share lessons learned over his remarkable career as one of Canada’s real estate and investment titans. He will provide his one-of-a-kind insights on building a business, managing succession, how to handle leadership in adversity, and his secrets of success. Jon will join Simon Crawford, Partner at Bennett Jones and Head of the firm’s Real Estate team, who will moderate the discussion.

Jon will also speak about the responsibility of business leaders in helping shape public policy. Jon offers an optimistic and compelling vision of Canada founded on bold thinking, practical know-how and a sense of urgency. He will explain why elected leaders in Canada need to work with a laser focus on creating a prosperity agenda, how they can get cities moving again, attract more foreign investment, and win under a second Trump presidency.

This is a not-to-be missed opportunity to learn about the fundamentals of leadership from a legend of the Canadian business world.
