"We are honored to have Dominica join us this year at our Annual Securities Operations Summit," said Lisa Iagatta, ISITC Chair. "The gender diversity campaign, pioneered by the team at State Street Global Advisors and represented by the 'Fearless Girl' sculpture on Wall Street, has greatly influenced our industry for the better. We look forward to bringing her inspiring story and valuable insights to ISITC members and other conference attendees."

Ribeiro has nearly 25 years of experience in financial services. Having spent much of her career in institutional marketing, she has influenced the strategic direction and communications approach for leaders such as Fidelity Investments, Pyramis Global Advisors, and Putnam Investments. In her current role as Head of North America Institutional Marketing at State Street Global Advisors, Ribeiro leads the planning and implementation of the company's integrated marketing campaigns.
