Invest in Canada

Canada is the world’s 10th largest economy, and the 13th most competitive economy in the world according to the World Economic Forum. Canada’s growing population, highly skilled workforce, stable banking system, and business-friendly regulatory environment make it an attractive destination for international investors. With 26 airports and 18 seaports, Canada is well positioned as an opportunistic hub for companies looking to expand into new markets, as it offers direct maritime access to Asia, Europe and Latin America. High-growth industries such as real estate, clean technology, agrifood, plant-based protein, professional services, and emerging technology have generated a great deal of interest from investors worldwide. Join the CABC and our partners to discover the many investment opportunities that Canada has to offer. This event is part of the Canada-ASEAN Business Leaders Series organised by the CABC, in partnership with the Government of Canada.
