As we move into the final quarter of the year, I am pleased to share an update on one of the most important events in the Canada Arab Business Council’s calendar. On October 30, 2025, we will gather at the Ritz-Carlton Toronto for our Annual Business Forum and Gala Dinner under the theme: “Partners in Progress: Strengthening Canada-MENA for a Sustainable Future.”
The Business Forum, taking place in the afternoon, will feature dynamic discussions across three key panels: Trade & Investment, Education & Life Sciences, and Resources & Energy Transition. These conversations will bring together government officials, business leaders, and innovators from Canada and across the MENA region to explore new opportunities for growth and collaboration.
Our Gala Dinner will follow in the evening, providing a unique occasion to celebrate the enduring partnerships that define Canada-MENA relations. This flagship gathering has become a premier platform to showcase leadership, foster dialogue, and recognize the role of business in driving sustainable progress.
We are delighted to welcome distinguished speakers and guests this year, and I encourage all our members and partners to secure their participation early. Sponsorship opportunities remain available for those wishing to highlight their leadership and strengthen their visibility within this influential network.
I look forward to seeing many of you at the Forum and Gala as we come together to celebrate our achievements and chart the course for the future of Canada-MENA collaboration.
With appreciation,
Cathy Séguin
President/Executive Director
