Program Advisors

Participants in the Canaccord Genuity Advisory Program for Women Entrepreneurs receive one-on-one mentorship from an executive leader carefully selected to pair with our entrepreneurs based on industry and/or entrepreneurial expertise. These advisors have been selected not only because of their success as business leaders and innovators, but because of their commitment to helping high-potential women achieve their goals.
