Canada is a nation of innovators. Brilliant minds have long embraced science and research to unleash transformative discoveries — from the discovery of insulin to the world’s first long-distance phone call.
The drive to re-imagine how we live has flourished in recent years. From the development of cutting-edge medical devices to advancements that fuel connectivity, Canada continues to be at the forefront of the most technologically advanced industries.
When associations meet here, they gain access to world-renowned experts who can elevate conference agendas. Delegates can see first-hand the latest innovations through hosted tours of research institutions, start-ups, and established companies — while advancing their careers through networking opportunities. When this expertise is combined with breathtaking landscapes, diverse cultures, and legendary experiences, it provides a thriving ecosystem for business events.

“We selected Montreal for our annual conference (we had never held it outside of the United States) and from site selection to closing session, the entire event process was exceptional. We were able to tap local resources and host an event that was creative and unique — resulting in our highest attendance and rave reviews. Because of that success, we committed to adding Canada to our rotation every four years and we’re excited to head to Vancouver in 2025!”

“We see a range of benefits when conferences are held in Canada. The cities are beautiful and easy to get to, the people are friendly and the quality of conference facilities are exceptional. All of this plays a huge role in helping to drive attendance among members. And equally as important, Canada does a remarkable job at coordinating its efforts to ensure that the decision-making process is as seamless as possible for planners.”
