Angela Thompson a finalist in Women in Finance Awards 2019

We are pleased to announce that Sharesight Digital Marketing Manager Angela Thompson has been named a finalist in the Women in Finance Awards 2019 in the Marketing Professional of the Year category.

Angela moved to Australia from her native Canada to join the Sharesight team in 2014 as its first full-time marketing employee. Since then Angela has set the standard and helped the team grow to five on the back of a focus on digital marketing that has scaled as Sharesight continues to grow.

A few of Angela’s favourite Sharesight moments

• Taking the Sharesight message to the ‘crowd’ with a communications campaign that spearheaded Sharesight’s $2 million equity crowdfund in 2015

• Telling the ‘Sharesight story’ through the Sharesight story video

  • "I felt it was important to highlight our "family roots", and to show how Sharesight was built "by investors, for investors. I worked with a documentary filmmaker in Wellington, NZ to shoot this candid video with our father and son co-founders, Tony and Scott Ryburn."

• Increasing the profile of women in investing by:

  • Publishing ‘6 women share their investing journeys’ feature for International Women’s Day 2019

  • Sharing her own investing journey with Six Park’s Erika Jonsson: Women in finance: Q and A with Sharesight's Angela Thompson

  • Profiling accountant and Sharesight partner [Philippa O'Mara]https://www.sharesight.com/blog/engine-room-chartered-accountants/)
