Emerging Markets in the Spotlight 2026 is a year-long global startup event series designed to help Canadian companies look beyond the U.S. and access some of the world’s fastest-growing international markets. Spanning seven events throughout the year, the series highlights a different high-potential emerging market at each session, offering founders a practical roadmap for global expansion.
Each event delivers actionable market intelligence, including a dedicated white paper on top growth sectors, a leaders’ panel focused on real-world market entry strategies, and curated networking opportunities with key stakeholders and peers. Together, these elements provide companies with the insights, connections, and confidence needed to scale internationally.
Canadian businesses are invited to register for events in the first half of the year to explore new markets, build strategic relationships, and uncover fresh pathways for sustainable global growth.
