Meet Our 2024 Imperial Scholar: Sandra Alarcón Escobar

Sandra Alarcón Escobar, a master’s student in Metals and Energy Finance at Imperial College London, is BMO’s 2024 Imperial Scholar. Born in Chile, Sandra has spent her career in the Chilean copper mining industry and understands the importance of gender equality in the Global Metals and Mining industry.

“Today, the mining industry is so important in the net zero commitment. And also equal gender,” said Alarcon. “So we must be part of this.”

On September 25, 2024, BMO’s Equity Through Education program will celebrate 20 years of supporting scholarships, education, and inclusion by donating institutional equity trading commissions to charitable organizations.
