Take your business to Canada! WEDC’s global trade mission to Canada, taking place April 6-11, 2025, will facilitate meetings for Wisconsin companies with qualified channel partners in the market. Canada is often the first market for new Wisconsin exporters. It is similar in many ways to the U.S., in terms of buying practices, use of the English language, and proximity to the Wisconsin market (with the vast majority of goods moving by truck). This year’s global trade mission to Canada includes stops in Vancouver, the largest city in British Columbia, with 2.6 million inhabitants in its metro area and, Calgary, the largest city in the Province of Alberta, with a population of just over 1.6 million people in the greater metro area. In each city, one-on-one meetings with prospective partners will be provided based on each company’s business needs and objectives. Companies in these sectors should especially consider attending: Information and communications technology Digital health applications Advanced manufacturing Clean technology and energy reduction Automation Agricultural technology Critical minerals mining infrastructure Electric vehicle supply chain Life sciences Creative industries Find more details and register for the Canada trade mission, please contact Chad Hoffman, CGBP at chad.hoffman@wedc.org.
