If you are interested in joining, please complete the pre-registration by June 30, 2025. The platform is expected to open the 2nd week of July, and will consist of a series of virtual B2B (business-to-business) meetings between researchers from both Canada and Mexico. These meetings will provide a platform to share knowledge, explore collaboration opportunities, and develop joint projects that drive innovation and progress in our areas of interest.
Participation is free of charge.
The registration process consists of two steps:
- Step 1: Complete the pre-registration form at the link above.
- Step 2: Register on the B2B platform. Access details will be sent to selected participants.
Please note that spaces are limited. In the event of a high number of applications, organizers will select participants based on a balanced representation across key thematic areas and institutions from both Canada and Mexico.
