It is well documented that that some of the most successful companies in the world were borne out of times of crisis. Consumer behaviour will change. Demand will dry up in sectors and appear in others. New industries will emerge. The University of Toronto community is uniquely positioned to drive post-pandemic prosperity, given our strengths in both research and venture creation.\n\nJoin us for an interactive fireside chat, featuring some of Canada\u2019s top business leaders, investors and entrepreneurs who are leading organizations that actively invest in the next generation of talent. Topics covered will include: the workplace of the future, changing fabric of cities, evolution of e-commerce and retail and the latest trends in fintech.\n    <\/div>\n    \n\n    \n    <div
