Tennis Canada and National Bank Launch Campaign for Gender Equality Week 2024
In 2023, the UNMATCHED Gender Equity in Sports Conference presented by Tennis Canada and National Bank encouraged attendees to join forces to advance the gender equity in sport conversation. It generated meaningful cross-sector networking among guests and panelists about what it means to be All in for Equity.
The conference was divided into the three key segments: GAME. SET. EQUITY. GAME built a bridge between 2022 and 2023. The SET segment helped establish where we are today, courtesy of change-makers across various sectors. And EQUITY saw Maria Sharapova offer a uniquely powerful perspective about how we can contribute to gender equity in sport.
SPEAKERS AND SPECIAL GUESTS
“It is about being the best version of yourself, it’s not about comparing myself to someone else, or a male player, or a match that’s three out of five sets”
-Maria Sharapova
