Summary

Canada Trade Missions are led by the Minister of International Trade. They offer tailored programs consisting of plenaries, seminars, hospitality events and networking opportunities designed to introduce participants to local government decision makers, business leaders and research insitutions, as well as to Canadian business people active in the region with experience to share. These missions send a strong message to prospective partners that Canada is committed to doing business with them.

Each mission draws business representatives from four to eight identified business focus sectors that are deemed to hold the greatest mutual promise for new business development with the mission destination countries.
