When Fraud Is Not Fiction: A Storytelling Venture
**This just in! Rumnor has it that the talk will be provocative. She will likely bring clips from her award-winning documentary, “All the Queen’s Horses” which shows again next week at the Sisley Center in Chicago!**
Ivy Walker, CEO of Helios Digital, will share how the company uses storytelling to create immersive and engaging experiences that help students and professionals learn, retain and integrate ethical lessons. These lessons matter whether you're teaching accounting, law or management, onboarding new employees or training a corporate board.
Ivy Walker is a start-up and growth executive whose background includes a wide range of entrepreneurial experiences in both for-profit and not-for-profit/social venture settings.
She has previously held roles such as President of a venture-backed consumer health start-up that successfully launched a health gamification platform, CEO of a global social venture that brought diagnostic medical imaging to developing countries, and CEO of a business accelerator for start-up and high growth companies.
