2023 will be an exciting year for New Power Labs as we continue to build momentum.
RESEARCH
Across 2023, we are advancing key research and launching our Capital Flow & People Diversity Data initiative, to drive transparency and lay the foundation for collective change.
We continue to build a library of leading edge research summaries relevant to equity, diversity and inclusion in capital to provide partners and practitioners with accessible, concise and practical insights.
PARTNERSHIP
We are launching a coalition — the New Power Labs Members Network — to share insights and take action through practice partnerships and prototypes.
Further, to accelerate innovative ways of flowing capital more equitably based on collaborative, scalable solutions we are launching two new practice partnerships.
BENCHMARKING
We are working with partners to align on benchmarks that help set aspirational goals and drive accountability.
We are publishing the Equity Benchmarks Library, mapping and aggregating existing equity, diversity, and inclusion benchmarking approaches to support practitioners.
EDUCATION
Through a host of channels — including Equity Shots, a weekly newsletter, an op-ed series, a podcast, and monthly webinars — we will share accessible, practical insights on capital and equity, diversity and inclusion, showcase Canadian and international best practices and raise awareness around relevant issues and credible solutions. We will convene our first public, in-person conference to establish the urgency and importance of making capital flow more equitably; broaden interest in joining a cohort of New Power Members; and build credibility for New Power Labs’ work.
We will continue to share insights and practices to build momentum across sectors, and to build public support for our movement.
PLATFORM & ORGANIZATION
We will strengthen our capacity, reach, and governance to take on our ambitious agenda to make capital flow more equitably.
New Power Labs is a lot of things. It’s a community of like-minded leaders in finance, in impact investing, in social innovation, who all know that we need to change the way that things are done and, more importantly, are committed to seeing this change come to life. It’s a go-to place for organizations that are looking to learn how to become more equitable and inclusive. It’s where learning resources, equity, diversity and inclusion research and actionable ideas can all be found. And finally, it’s a way for us to hold each other accountable to our goals and our targets in a way that is compassionate and empathetic.
