New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - March 11, 2024) - US presidential candidate Jason Palmer, an entrepreneur, impact investor, and philanthropist, has joined the speaking roster at The Activist Investor Conference hosted by DealFlow Events on March 21.

Palmer will discuss "Conscious Capitalism and Shareholder Activism" during the event, drawing on three decades of experience in the capital markets.

He has held executive and leadership positions at multiple organizations, including Microsoft, Kaplan Education, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the impact investor firm New Markets Venture Partners.

Prior to his work with New Markets, he served as Deputy Director at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation for three years. He led postsecondary innovation efforts to improve the outcomes of disadvantaged college students by investing in colleges, universities, and entrepreneurs pursuing digital and adaptive learning, student coaching and advising, financial aid innovation, and employer pathways.
