Alberta Round Table Discussion

VirtualJanuary 29, 2026 at 10:00 AM

This month’s Virtual Strategic Interest Group is a fast-paced, practical round table focused on winning more business across Canada—not just talking about trade. We’ll talk as a group about interprovincial trade advantages and what manufacturers actually need to execute: sharper positioning, stronger value messaging, better lead-generation pathways, and a sales-ready approach to converting introductions into quotes and purchase orders. Expect a working session that surfaces real barriers, highlights what’s working for peers, and turns “opportunity” into clear next steps.
