Pensions & Investments offers a unique opportunity to connect with industry leaders, including CEOs, Executive Directors, General Counsel, and other influential figures. Through insightful interviews, we delve into their investment strategies, challenges, and growth opportunities, while also uncovering the personal stories that have shaped their professional journeys.
While investment is at the heart of the conversations, we go beyond just the numbers. We focus on the people and relationships that drive these critical decisions, providing a more engaging and relatable perspective. This isn’t your typical investment show—it’s a deeper, more personal exploration of the human side of the industry.
At the intersection of law, business, and investment, we explore how legal frameworks shape decision-making and drive strategic growth. Legal considerations such as compliance, risk management, and regulatory changes often play a pivotal role in investment decisions. By highlighting this connection, we offer a more comprehensive understanding of how law and business work together to foster long-term success.

Matt, a school teacher by training, discovered early on that the key to capturing attention—not just in a classroom but in a boardroom, or courtroom—is storytelling. He shares how this powerful tool has the ability to transform communication, deepen connection, and elevate confidence in any professional setting. Whether you are collaborating with team members or wanting to communicate about investments to colleagues, engaging them sets the tone for what comes next.
As a seasoned litigator and frequent speaker at conferences, Atara resonates deeply with Matt’s message. Together, they explore how storytelling isn’t just an art—it’s a strategic asset in business and law. Matt also discusses how he teaches storytelling techniques to everyone from young students to Fortune 500 executives, emphasizing the importance of personal narrative in building trust and influence.
