Artificial intelligence is changing the fundamentals of business, from how work gets done to how products are designed, built, and brought to market. Canadian companies are at the frontier, developing technologies that boost productivity, strengthen industries, and help Canada build a more competitive economy. At a time when Canada is laser focused on building sovereign capabilities and new trade relationships, ensuring these companies can connect with the customers and investors they need to grow their businesses has never mattered more.
Today, the Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada and Minister responsible for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, announced that 37 Atlantic Canadian artificial intelligence (AI) companies are participating in ALL IN 2026 in Montréal, Quebec. The companies will showcase their expertise and products, connect with industry leaders and potential customers, and build partnerships to grow their businesses and reach new markets. The strong presence from the region at ALL IN 2026 highlights Atlantic Canada's world-class AI capabilities and supports efforts to strengthen Canada's sovereign digital infrastructure.
The Atlantic Canadian AI companies attending offer products and services across a wide variety of sectors, including healthcare, energy, finance, manufacturing, and cybersecurity. Participating companies are focused on building connections with investors, international clients, and ecosystem partners, while generating qualified new sales leads and business opportunities. One of the key activities at the event includes an Atlantic Canada innovation showcase, bringing together companies, industry leaders, investors, and other key players from Canada's AI sector for a networking event to highlight the strength of the region's AI ecosystem.
The initiative also advances the objectives of Canada's National Artificial Intelligence Strategy: AI for All, which aims to accelerate AI adoption, scale Canadian AI companies, and help them expand into global markets.
As the Government of Canada works to diversify trade and champion Canadian AI solutions, ALL IN 2026 presents Atlantic Canadian businesses the opportunity to grow both domestically and internationally. By helping these companies connect with customers, attract investment, and pursue new opportunities, Canada and the Atlantic provinces are helping the region play a bigger role in Canada's AI-powered economic future.
