2023 Highlights
Every two years EKO hosts this pinnacle event for the child development sector and the largest
gathering of professionals and stakeholders from Ontario and across Canada.
Last year’s event featured an incredible lineup of speakers including Harvard University’s Dr.
Stuart Albom, Actor, Writer, LGBTQ Activist and Disability Advocate Ryan O’Connell, and
Developmental Pediatricians and Scientists Dr. Melanie Penner and Dr. Ripudaman Minhas;
colleagues from Ontario and beyond shared their experience and wisdom; and delegates made
meaningful connections across two days of programming, networking and after-hours
celebrations.
