About Event

1:20 – 1:25 PM: Opening Remarks
The Honourable Nate Glubish, Alberta’s Minister of Technology and Innovation, will deliver opening remarks to set the stage for the afternoon programming.

1:25 – 2:00 PM: Keynote – Future Fields
Join Dr. Matt Anderson-Baron, CEO and co-founder of Future Fields, for an inside look at one of Edmonton’s most exciting life sciences success stories. This keynote will explore how a bold biotech startup grew from a local idea to a multi-million-dollar venture-backed company, and what that journey reveals about Alberta’s growing innovation and advanced manufacturing ecosystem.

Dr. Anderson-Baron will share lessons learned on:

Building momentum while scaling in a competitive market
Staying connected to customers and solving real problems
Leveraging Edmonton’s scientific, entrepreneurial, and investment communities to fuel growth

With Alberta rapidly positioning itself as a manufacturing hub for life sciences, this session offers insights into what’s driving success today—and what’s next for innovators looking to make their mark.
