Description
On this week's show of the Exchange for Entrepreneurs Podcast we welcome Ray Williams to discuss diversity, race, and social equity, and why these themes are critical on both a human and economic level.
Ray Williams is the Vice Chairman - Financial Markets at National Bank Financial and has a storied banking career that has spanned decades. We discuss the legacy he's working to achieve through National Bank and organizations like the Black Opportunity Fund and 100 Strong.
