GBIP in Canada: Semiconductors

Explore semiconductor opportunities in Canada

UK businesses in the semiconductor industry are invited to join Innovate UK's Global Business Innovation Programme (GBIP) to explore opportunities in Canada.

This initiative aims to connect UK businesses with leading Canadian organisations, driving collaboration and innovation in the rapidly evolving semiconductor sector.

The programme focuses on fostering international partnerships, understanding market dynamics, and supporting the development of cutting-edge technologies. It includes a week-long market visit to Canada in April 2025, where participants will engage with key stakeholders, attend industry events, and gain insights into market opportunities.

Targeted at innovation-driven businesses, the programme is ideal for those developing semiconductor technologies, especially in areas of:

• emerging and advanced materials
• photonics
• prototyping and processing technologies
• power and sustainability
• communication and data
• sensors and sensing technologies

Participants will benefit from tailored workshops, networking opportunities, and access to expert advice on navigating the Canadian market.

Potential applicants can watch a recording of a previously held virtual briefing session to get more information.
