CENGN leverages its local and worldwide connections to give Canadian startups and scale ups who have done a CENGN project international exposure. This is done by showcasing these companies and their solutions at different local and international conferences and summits.
CENGN attends key industry trade shows and international missions. In addition, we organize marquee events, like the annual CENGN Summit and regular meet-ups, which bring together top leaders in next generation networking from all levels of government, academia, and industry. These events allow for tech businesses to continue learning, and make meaningful connections with key players in the ICT sector.
A project at CENGN provides your company exposure to the CENGN commercialization committee and our member companies. The commercialization committee is comprised of multi-national vendors and service providers, industry partners, government organizations, and academia. If your business completes a project at CENGN you gain promotional benefits in three main ways.
When the project application is accepted, the project overview is presented to CENGN’s member companies giving our members the opportunity to partner with your company on the project.
