Innovate Canada 2026 Connects Global Event Leaders with Canada’s Technology Ecosystem

From September 8 to 10, 2026, Destination Canada brought together a select group of senior international association and corporate leaders to Québec City for Innovate Canada, an invitation-only program built around a simple idea: where an event takes place can shape what that event makes possible. This year’s program focused on digital industries and applied technology, with international leaders from organizations including Google, Informa, IEEE Communications Society, INFORMS, and Women in Tech Global engaging directly with Canadian expertise in artificial intelligence, quantum, cybersecurity, telecommunications, digital infrastructure and emerging technologies.
