The Canada UK Energy Summit explores how the two countries can deepen commercial and political cooperation in the energy, mining & metals and related manufacturing sectors. The 15th annual edition of the Summit will be set against a background of geopolitical change, with new political leadership in the UK and the USA, and a Canadian federal election to take place by November 2025.
With Donald Trump in the White House in January, tariffs on US trading partners has become a reality. This takes place against a backdrop of ongoing trade tensions between the US and China and global efforts to win the technology race that includes decarbonizing their economies. In doing so, countries are scrambling to secure reliable, long-term supplies of energy, resources and inputs into their manufacturing supply chains.
The 15th anniversary Canada UK Energy Summit will explore how Canada and the UK can work together to address these key issues and strengthen transatlantic relations.
The Summit will cover the following key themes:
One hundred and twenty pre-qualified company representatives will be invited to participate, in addition to thirty government representatives who are responsible for the advancement of policy and funding frameworks. The Summit will include a business ‘mission’ of up to 25 Canadian innovators who will attend the event, and some will present during the afternoon session.
Canadian Business Delegation
An aim of the Canada UK Energy Summit is to provide a forum for generating commercial opportunities for Canadian exporters. In partnership with Accelerate, Canada’s ZEV industrial alliance, and Next Generation Manufacturing Canada, Canada’s manufacturing cluster accelerator network, the Canada UK Energy Summit will include a trade mission of 25 companies from energy, metals and minerals, battery and advanced manufacturing, Indigenous and labour. An aim of the Summit is to review how these Canadian companies can contribute to UK industrial projects.
