Anastasia Bucsis was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta and started speed skating at the age of 4. Within her 24 year speed skating career she represented Canada at 2 Olympic Games and 6 World championships. She was the only athlete from North America to come out publicly in opposition of Russia's anti LGBTQ+ laws before the Sochi 2014 Olympics. Bucsis is a passionate advocate for eliminating homophobia in sport, and mental health. She now lives in Toronto and works for CBC Sports where she hosts the Olympics, Paralympics, and CBC Sports Presents.
"This conference is one of the marquee women's sporting events in the world, and I am so humbled to host this year's event. I can't wait to hear the fantastic conversations that will move the needle closer to gender equity in sport."
