Brown Girls, Money Moves Presents: Poker Power
Brown Girls, Money Moves is proud to host Poker Power’s inaugural Toronto experience, in partnership with Toronto Tech Week and sponsored by First Avenue Investment Counsel and Borden Ladner Gervais.
Known for redefining how women build confidence and strategic thinking, Poker Power has worked with leading companies and institutions to transform the game of poker into a powerful framework for leadership, decision-making, and negotiation.
The first part of the evening is learning how to play poker through a Signature Poker Power Workshop. This is a highly curated, invitation-only experience for a select group of South Asian women at the forefront of capital, innovation, and influence, including C-suite leaders, venture capitalists, angel investors, and select media tastemakers.
Following the workshop, we will open the evening to a broader mixer experience, with a limited number of public tickets available.
For the Brown Girls, Money Moves community, this experience aligns with how we operate. Our members are scaling companies and shaping industries, often in rooms where the stakes are high and the margin for hesitation is low. This evening is about refining how we show up in those moments, with clarity, conviction, and strategy.
With limited capacity, this gathering is intentionally designed to foster meaningful connection, thoughtful exchange, and a shared language around leadership. All within a room of women who are building what’s next.
