Join key industry players from the most energy intensive sectors at the only pan-Canadian conference dedicated to industrial decarbonization.
Following the IRA in the US, and CBAM in Europe how are Canadian industrials defining business models and co2 plans that keep them competitive as they accelerate to 2030 and 2040 targets? Who are the investors stepping up to scale? Which innovators and disruptors provide the most decarbonisation potential for co2 intensive industries? Where is policy heading as Canada approaches the next general election?
Connect with 200+ CTOs, CSOs and leaders in decarbonization from energy-intensive sectors spanning steel, chemicals, aggregates, cement, oil & gas, construction materials and more.
Join the entire decarbonization ecosystem from 5-7 November at Hotel X in Toronto – a gathering specifically designed to help you walk away with derisked plans, bankable strategies and elite collaborators. The goal of the event – to ensure that you have the insights and technical info you need to reduce co2 competitively.
You’ll hear how leading government figures are planning policy and you’ll meet the academics, investors & technology experts driving innovation to the heart of industry. This is your opportunity build an unrivalled set of contacts you’ll keep revisiting long after the event ends.

“Attending the conference was great to learn about the different decarbonization pathways in different industries and the challenges industry is looking at for their decarbonization requirements.”
Shannon Wilson, carbonNext, ForsightCan
“It was a truly enriching experience to participate in the Decarb Connect Canada conference panel session focused on ‘Mobilising Capital and Private Investment to Drive Industrial Decarbonisation in Canada. Our discussions illuminated a critical aspect of the path towards achieving our net-zero targets by 2050 – the enormous investment requirements of CCUS and hydrogen.”
Fathesha Sheikh, Holcim
“Very interesting to hear the challenges for decarbonization of other industries in other provinces. And to discover they have come to the same conclusions about applicability of different solutions.”
Simon Davies, Canadian Natural Resource Limited
“A very well organised event, with attention to all details that make the difference. Excellent level of speakers both in terms of seniority and expertize from a broad range of industries, NGOs, funds and policymakers…well designed networking connections provided by the organiser”

“It’s very clear. This is one the best forums where policy makers, industrials and experts all come together to solve common challenges. There’s no such thing as my challenge or their challenge, its our collective challenge. It’s a place where people can come with open ideas, work together and solve them together.”
Aniruddha Sharma, Carbon Clean
“I really enjoyed the Decarb Connect conference because it was really the leaders of the industry who are focused on practical decarbonization…I met the contenders focused on getting real projects off the ground. Great way to meet the right connections for potential partnerships.”
