A CROSS-CANADA SERIES ACTIVATING WOMEN’S CAPITAL, LEADERSHIP & INFLUENCE.

The Road to the

Summit

From Vancouver to Toronto, The51 is taking the capital conversation across Canada, connecting investors, founders, and leaders shaping the economy of the future. 

The Road to the Summit is a national series advancing women-led capital and the ideas driving Canada’s next economy. Building on the momentum of the 2025 XX Summit, this cross-country journey expands the dialogue, exploring how women think about ownership, opportunity, and wealth, and how those forces move markets. 

Four cities. Hundreds of leaders. One shared ambition: to scale women’s capital and influence from coast to coast, culminating at the XX Summit 2026 in Calgary.
