Hi Everyone,

Looking forward to meeting you tonight! And to hearing all of the great ideas and presentations at what sounds like an amazing event!

I’m Eva-Jane Lark and I am a Vice-President and Investment Advisor at BMO Nesbitt Burns. I also have a passionate interest in innovation and especially in Space development (the “Outer” kind) with a commercial/entrepreneurial focus. In that context, I created an interview series about Space and Business, have written a number of papers, presented at conferences on Space investment and financing, am on the Board of the Space Engineering Research Center at Texas A&M University and have been a judge at recent Business Plan Competitions. Most of these activities aren’t focused in Ottawa (or Canada), so I am excited to learn more about the innovation happening locally.

See you later today!!
