Building on the no-holds-barred topics explored from Part I & II of Foresight\u2019s Future Economy Summit, we\u2019re taking the conversation to Ottawa to engage policymakers, public officials, and decision-makers on how public sector investment can take Canada from worst to first in the race to net zero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public sector capital holds the power to ignite progress where it\u2019s most needed, fueling ambitious projects, de-risking private investment, and catalyzing new levels of innovation, economics, and sustainability. This summit holds space for the candid conversations about Canada\u2019s performance around industry innovation, economic development and competitiveness with 120+ government and ecosystem partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t about incremental shifts\u2014it\u2019s about unlocking massive potential, accelerating cleantech adoption, and transforming the global economy at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event is in partnership with Invest Ottawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
