Bigger isn’t Smarter: Discover how to match AI infrastructure to your real needs, with local Canadian resources at your side.

Join this expert-led session for a practical, step-by-step guide to building AI environments that deliver high performance, without costly overprovisioning. See how Canadian innovators use modern techniques and infrastructure to develop and deploy AI models for massive datasets, all while saving significant costs 2–4 times compared to big US cloud providers.

Gain actionable tips to avoid massive upfront costs and  the pain of hardware ownership, that keeps the budgets tight, and unlock flexible, frictionless scaling to power for breakthrough projects. Walk through a real-world case study, discover to learn exactly how to size and configure your environment for maximum speed and efficiency, backed by the security and support of homegrown Canadian cloud solutions. Perfect for teams who demand results, not roadblocks or headaches.

Too many businesses overspend on infrastructure they never fully use, it’s like buying a transport truck just to drive to the corner store. This session shows you how to break that cycle. By right-sizing your AI environment with Canadian-based resources, you’ll not only cut costs but use that budget to power other useful resources, all while keeping your data secure and close to home.

Keeping AI infrastructure in Canada is more than compliance, it’s about sovereignty, security, and trust. By having AI locally, businesses stay aligned with Canadian privacy laws, avoid foreign jurisdiction risks, and maintain full control over sensitive data. Local AI hosting also delivers faster performance, reliable support in your own time zone, and peace of mind knowing your data is protected close to home. For industries like finance, healthcare, and government, it’s not just a best practice, it' s a strategic advantage.
