Join Heather Barnhouse, partner in our Edmonton office, as she explores women in leadership and entrepreneurship, and the ecosystem that supports them. In episode 14, Heather chats with Shannon Pestun, founder and CEO of Pestun Consulting Inc., about the importance of disruption in the capital markets for the benefit of women entrepreneurs.

Prior to starting her own consulting company, Shannon was Director of the Women’s Entrepreneurship program at ATB Financial, where she led the program in creating more opportunities for women entrepreneurs by addressing the core financial capital challenges they faced as entrepreneurs. Shannon currently sits on numerous boards including Women’s Entrepreneurship Day Organization (WED) in Canada, a grassroots mission to alleviate poverty by empowering, celebrating and supporting women in business worldwide.

WED is hosting their Women’s Entrepreneurship Day virtual summit on November 19, 2020 between 2pm – 4pm EST. You can find out more information at https://www.womenseday.org/
