The theme for this year's forum was finding new ways to connect Canadian entrepreneurs and small-and-medium-sized enterprises with the expertise and capabilities they need to support their global ambitions.
The event attracted representatives from approximately 35 different companies and organizations, and addressed three major topics: Connecting Through Better Organization; Connecting With Technology; and Connecting New and Underutilized Capabilities.
The keynote of the event was an address by Adam Froman, founder and CEO of Delvinia and member of the Canadian Council of Innovators, who reminded participants that Canada has less of a startup problem and more a scale-up problem.
