Canada's defence landscape is evolving rapidly, shaped by shifting geopolitical realities, new security challenges, and growing expectations for military readiness and investment. How Canada responds will have significant implications for national security, defence innovation, and the future of the Canadian Armed Forces.
From the organizer
Join us for Defence in 2027: From Commitment to Capability, an evening of discussion and networking bringing together perspectives from industry, the Canadian Armed Forces, and the legal community to explore the future of Canadian defence.
The event will feature a 40-minute moderated panel discussion hosted by Bloomberg BC Bureau Chief Thomas Seal, followed by a 20-minute audience Q&A.
Following the discussion, guests are invited to stay for a networking reception with food and beverages provided — an opportunity to connect with fellow attendees, industry leaders, and members of the broader defence community.
Whether you work in defence, are involved in policy or industry, or are simply interested in Canada's national security and future military capabilities, this event offers an opportunity to learn, exchange perspectives, and build meaningful connections.
