Doing Business in Canada

The Embassy of Canada to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is pleased to invite you to the Global Leaders Business Series, a seminar highlighting Canada's attractive business and investment opportunities in the life sciences, advanced manufacturing and information and communication technology sectors.

With the Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) recently concluded, this will be your opportunity to take a strategic look at doing business in Canada as well as in the larger North American marketplace. The seminar, featuring business leaders and policy makers from Canada and Luxembourg, will also be attended by members of the Consider Canada City Alliance, a group representing Canada's largest cities.

Join us for this unique event!
