Featuring insightful speakers and engaging panel discussions, the summit highlighted key topics including manufacturing innovation, supply chain resilience, and the industry’s growing shift into defence-related opportunities.

Robert Cattle and Louis Jahn joined industry peers in exchanging ideas and strengthening relationships that will help drive the future of Canada’s manufacturing and tooling sectors. The event was further distinguished by the presence of the Hon. Janice Charette, P.C., O.C., whose participation added valuable perspective to the day’s discussions.

The CTMA extends its congratulations to the APMA on another highly successful Canada Automotive Summit and looks forward to continuing these important conversations as the industry prepares for the 2027 event.
