Dubbed “Inspiring Talks, Real Solutions,” the two-part event will be held at the Toronto Centre for the Performing Arts on June 6.

The forum will feature talks by astronaut Chris Hadfield, environmentalist David Suzuki and futurist Jim Carroll; the three will offer their perspectives on matters such as climate change, disruptive technologies and economic uncertainty.

“The afternoon will focus on real and compelling solutions to the challenges faced by brokers, and promises to deliver exciting, unique and relevant content for insurance professionals of all levels,” a release detailed. Delegates can choose to attend one of two seminars: Idea Accelerator for leaders, or the Gore Mutual Experience for frontline staff.
