Tariq Fancy is a Canadian entrepreneur. A former investment banker and private equity professional, he is best known for founding The Rumie Initiative, a non-profit organization that aims to educate children in underserved communities using affordable technology. Tariq was the Chief Investment Officer for Sustainable Investing at BlackRock leaving in late 2019 due to both family obligations and his disillusionment about the real-world social impact of sustainable investing.[citation needed]
Fancy is a speaker on applying social innovation to education and development, including appearances on CNBC[1] and at the United Nations.[2] His financial commentary has appeared regularly in the Financial Post,[3][4] and his economic research on innovation policy with the C.D. Howe Institute was cited in the Canadian Federal Budget to support policy changes.[5][6]
Fancy's work on the Rumie Initiative[7] has received widespread coverage in the mainstream media, including CNBC,[1] The Toronto Star,[8] CBC,[9] Quartz,[10] and Forbes. Both INSEAD[11] and the Harvard Business School[12] have published case studies or profiles on Fancy's work with the Rumie Initiative. In 2017, he was selected to Canada's 40 Under 40.[13][14]
