The Global AI Economy: Capital, Sovereignty, and Canada’s Competitive Future
12:15–1:00 p.m.
Artificial intelligence is redrawing the foundations of economic power, and leadership will depend on the ability to mobilize capital, build computing and energy infrastructure, and commercialize innovation. For Canada, the challenge is converting strengths in research, talent, and energy into companies, intellectual property, and productive capacity that can scale. Digital sovereignty is not self-sufficiency; it means retaining enough capability and strategic choice while staying connected to global markets and trusted partners. This discussion will examine where Canada must build domestic capacity, and what policy and investment conditions can turn early AI leadership into lasting competitiveness.
