Canada Roundtable: Creating Wealth in the Bioeconomy Through Innovation
Session Description
The panel will bring together experts to share their perspectives and experiences on how their organizations contribute to innovation within their respective sectors and national contexts. Discussions will highlight how these efforts support sectoral development, stimulate economic activity, and ultimately contribute to wealth creation. The roundtable will be structured around two guiding questions: 1) How do you approach innovation within your organization, and what differentiates your approach? 2) How does your work contribute to economic value creation, both today and future? How do you address associated challenges?
