About the forum
The IEEE Canada Industry Relations Committee jointly with theCCECE 2015 Conference presents a forum on innovation and regional development. The forum is a platform for leaders from industry, government granting agencies and academia to share their views and practices on a wide range of topics related to the development of the Atlantic Canadian industry such as innovation, technology commercialization, technology start-ups, venture capital investment, growing a business, and global market penetration, etc.
We expect this forum to create more awareness of the various resources supporting innovation; generate more interests in technology commercialization; motivate the private sector R&D; as well as stimulate continued debate on developing the future of the Atlantic Canadian industry through innovation and advanced technologies.
Invited speakers and panelists are from the following pool of experts:

  • Tech start-up entrepreneurs
  • Industry leaders
  • Government regional development and granting agency representatives
  • Technology transfer and commercialization leaders
  • Venture capitalists
  • International marketers

This 3-hour event will be divided into 3 one-hour segments:
