As the nation strengthens its presence in the North, a new wave of homegrown defence tech startups is rising to meet critical capability needs—supported by government-driven innovation and growing interest from capital markets. Arctic Edge brings together leaders from across the innovation ecosystem, public sector, and investment community to explore the opportunities and challenges shaping Canada’s defence future.
