​Canada offers foreign Life Science companies a compelling value proposition for expansion, R&D investment, and clinical trials, including competitive R&D tax incentives, a deep talent pipeline, universal healthcare data sets, and proximity to the US market. Representatives from the Ontario Trade & Investment Office and the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service will be on hand to discuss how your company can leverage Canada's life sciences ecosystem to grow.
