SUMMARY:Snowflake Manufacturing - Automate Canada & Hackforge event
DESCRIPTION:Snowflake Manufacturing\nFor our first ever Hackforge event\, Automate Canada is hosting Brent McPhail\, CEO of Brave Control Solutions for a talk on “Snowflake Manufacturing.” \n“Snowflake Manufacturing is not about how complex the product is or how many variations there are\, it is actually about when those variations are introduced into the manufacturing process\,” writes McPhail. “If a product is completely defined prior to the design of the machine to build it\, then it is traditional manufacturing. If it continues to change after the machine has been fabricated\, it is Snowflake Manufacturing.” \nRegister now for this free event to learn more about how McPhail and his team are overcoming this complicated automation challenge.

SUMMARY:Executive Summit 2022  - Canadian Chamber of Commerce
DESCRIPTION:About this event\n\n\n\nOur 2022 Executive Summit Series will feature six sectors and will explore how each contributes to our country’s economic success. At each event\, participants will benefit from insightful discussions amongst some of Canada’s most influential business leaders and government officials. \nCanada-U.S. Defence and National Security | May 18 \nCanada and the United States share interests in continental security and the success of the industrial base that underpins our national security. Additionally\, the success of the Canadian defence industry relies on access to the U.S. market. This Executive Summit will explore how the continental defence industrial base can be strengthened in the context of the current political and security environment. \nThe Future of Responsible Artificial Intelligence | June 8 \nWith artificial intelligence (AI) becoming embedded in every sector\, there is enormous potential but also risk. Responsible AI aims to create accountability for those who build or use AI systems\, with a focus on increased transparency\, fairness\, reliability\, security and interpretability. This Executive Summit will highlight how responsible AI can support the adoption and practice of designing\, developing and deploying AI to empower employees and businesses\, and fairly affect customers and society in a domestic and global context. \nThe Future of Fintech in Canada | October 26 \nFrom ecommerce to digital currencies\, the financial system is rapidly evolving to meet the needs of an increasingly digital and interconnected world. With open banking\, digital wallets and central bank digital currencies on the horizon\, today’s innovators are looking for clarity on the financial landscape of tomorrow. This Executive Summit will examine the future of fintech in Canada and the legal\, regulatory and policy questions it presents. \nFostering New Growth in Canada’s Cannabis Industry | November 9 \nIn October 2018\, Canada became the first developed country to legalize cannabis for recreational use. Since then\, the sector has grown into a multibillion dollar industry including licenced producers\, retailers\, agriculture companies and many more. Notwithstanding its success\, the cannabis industry continues to face regulatory barriers that impede its economic potential. This Executive Summit will explore how the Canadian cannabis industry can overcome those barriers to become a key driver of Canada’s economic success.
