BDN and PwC Host Sold-Out Emerging Trends in the Boardroom Session on AI, Cyber, and Quantum Computing Oversight
Yesterday, the Board Diversity Network and PwC Canada co-hosted a sold-out session in our Emerging Trends in the Boardroom series focused on Cyber, AI, and Quantum Computing Oversight.
The room was filled with directors and senior executives committed to strengthening governance and bringing sharper, more informed conversations back to their boardrooms.
Our keynote speaker, Claudette M., CEO of Protexxa and Corporate Director, delivered a compelling and practical presentation on why emerging technologies demand board-level attention.
The panel discussion, expertly moderated by Lori-Ann Beausoleil FCPA, FCA, Co-Founder of Board Diversity Network and Corporate Director, featured:
Nissa Shariff Partner at PwC Canada Strategy&
Amin Lalji, Strategic Advisor at Wildeboer Dellelce LLP
Diane Kazarian, FCPA, FCA, CPA(US), ICD.D, GCB.D, Alumni Partner at PwC Canada and Corporate Director
David Raju, Interim Chief Executive Officer at People’s Group

Together, they explored the critical questions boards should be raising and the strategic opportunities thoughtful oversight of AI, cyber, and quantum can unlock, reinforcing a clear reality: emerging technology is no longer peripheral to governance, but integral to organizational resilience and long-term sustainability.
