Join us for an evening of inspiration, empowerment and a celebration of Asian excellence and heritage!
May is Asian Heritage Month and as a community who values and celebrates culture, diversity and inclusion, we think it’s important to use this as an opportunity to highlight and celebrate Asian women in Winnipeg who are following their passions, using their voice and paving the way for other Asian women (and women in general!) to break down barriers, crush personal and professional goals and to remember that they deserve a seat at the table!
Joining our panel is:
Jackie Wild, Owner of Tito Boy Restaurant [our venue host] and Delight Digital
Jackie is a seasoned communications and marketing professional with over a decade of experience managing successful community-focused initiatives within the public, private and non-profit sectors. As a racialized woman in business, she understands the critical role anti-racism advocacy plays in advancing equitable outcomes for her kababayan (fellow country people) and the broader community.
In 2022, Jackie launched Tito Boy Restaurant, Winnipeg’s first south-end Philippine eatery offering traditional and fusion culinary creations. The business, named after her father Agustin “Tito Boy” Doming, represents the intersectionality of different generations and what it means to be a Philippine-Canadian in the modern era.
A champion of community building, Jackie serves as the President of the Manitoba Filipino Business Council, leading their vision to serve as the prime community resource hub for Philippine business people and professionals. In 2020, Jackie was named one of CBC Manitoba’s Future 40 recipients and featured in the Filipino Journal’s 20 Filipinos to Watch list.
Stay tuned for announcements of the two remaining panelists!
We're excited to be hosting this panel celebration at Tito Boy Restaurant! Join us for an evening of inspiration, empowerment and a celebration of Asian excellence and heritage! In addition to hearing from our panel of experts, expect a complimentary welcome drink, a traditional Kamayan-style family dinner of vegetable pancit, coconut chicken adobo and Filipino dishes, and who knows - we may even have time for a little karaoke to close out the evening.
We encourage guests of all ethnicities to embrace this great opportunity to learn about different industries, ask questions to help facilitate your business growth, learn about different cultures and traditions and to discover ways to build and support diverse and inclusive communities.
