For the third year in a row, RBC Capital Markets was the lead sponsor of the Capitalize for Kids Investors Conference in Toronto. This conference brings together the world’s most prominent investors in a two-day event. All proceeds go towards children’s brain and mental health initiatives at various medical centres, including The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.

In the spirit of brain and mental health, we challenged attendees to a chess challenge against 17-year-old Canadian chess grandmaster, Razvan Preotu. Although the grandmaster could not be beaten, attendees were excited to put their skills to the test and be involved in an event for such a worthy cause.
