‘We went public into a bear market’: Lithium Royalty Corp’s head of IR on the buy-side-into-IR learning curve

Jonida Zaganjori shares her approach to investor relations as a former buy sider

Lithium Royalty Corp’s IR lead didn’t come to the profession through the more typical paths of corporate finance or a transition from the sell side. As Jonida Zaganjori tells IR Impact, she took on her first IR role fresh from working at a Toronto money manager, an experience that has guided her approach to relationship building on the other side of the table.

You can read more from Zaganjori in the IR Impact Global Roadshow Report 2026, where she shares her views on divvying up the CFO and the CEO’s time as well as her favorite city to visit. We also interviewed Dominique Barker, Lithium Royalty’s CFO, as part of our flagship series The CFO.

Lithium Royalty recently agreed to be acquired by Altus Minerals Corporation.
