E8 - Judy Fairburn - Change-maker, Board Director, Public Speaker, C-suite experience, Engineer
“Change is a step-by-step journey. You have to have an ultimate goal of where you want to get to.”
Join me as I chat with Judy Fairburn, Co-Founder of The 51 Ventures and Board Director for MEG Energy, Tundra Oil & Gas, VEERUM, PureWeb and the Business Council of Alberta.
You may recognize Judy from this month’s cover of Business in Calgary magazine, and now she’s bringing her trailblazing attitude for innovation to the conversation on economic transformation, emphasizing the importance for business leaders to constantly be curious about emerging opportunities in both the energy and technology sectors in Calgary. Proudly calling herself a “serial co-founder”, Judy’s true passions lie in empowering female entrepreneurs - what she calls an untapped segment - and by mixing things up between established leaders and new thinkers to further the momentum of change in Calgary.
