Canada's future: Building a creative nation

At a pivotal moment for Canada’s screen-based industries, join the leaders of the country’s national audiovisual organizations as they come together for a candid conversation about cultural sovereignty, the strength of Canadian and Indigenous stories, reaching audiences where they are, and the future of Canada’s domestic production ecosystem. This session will explore how public investment bolsters creative ambition, economic and cultural growth, and global competitiveness, and how funding strategies are putting the industry first and evolving to meet the realities of a changing marketplace. A not to be missed opportunity for delegates to hear directly from the leaders of the organizations supporting Canadian content today and into the future.

Moderated by Joëlle Montminy, Senior Assistant Deputy Minister, Cultural Affairs, Canadian Heritage.
