How Our Missions Work

Deep Tech Canada's international trade missions are fully coordinated, turn-key experiences designed to open global doors for Canadian deep tech innovators. From preparation to post-mission follow-up, we handle every detail so members can focus on what matters most—building meaningful global partnerships. Our missions are strategically designed to generate export opportunities and drive international sales by connecting Canadian companies directly with potential buyers, partners, and investors. 

We make sure you're fully equipped to maximize your impact in the target market by providing:

  • Strategic Network Access: We leverage our extensive network both in Canada and abroad to create opportunities tailored to your goals.
  • Delegate Recruitment: Carefully selected participants ensure a high-caliber mission cohort.
  • Government Collaboration: We coordinate closely with federal and provincial trade teams to align efforts.
  • Delegate Profile Book: A professionally prepared and translated (as needed) profile book is shared with participants and local partners to support targeted matchmaking.
  • Program Itinerary Development: A detailed itinerary is developed, including pavilion build logistics and mission activities, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.
  • Pre-Departure Meetings: We organize in-depth sessions to:
    • Provide an overview of the target market
    • Discuss cultural considerations and business etiquette
    • Align expectations and review travel logistics
    • Introduce fellow delegates

While abroad, we provide hands-on support to maximize your exposure and engagement:

  • Canadian Pavilion Hosting: At key international events, we host a dedicated Canadian Pavilion, offering:
    • On-site translation services
    • Delegate support and logistics coordination
    • Meeting spaces (when available)
  • Coordinated Site Visits: We organize strategic visits to major institutions and companies, with opportunities for Canadian companies to present. Past visits have included:
    • Dai Nippon Printing
    • Fujifilm Open Innovation Hub
    • Institute for Quantum Life Science
    • National Institute of Materials Science
    • National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)
  • Business Matching Meetings: We facilitate direct, curated meetings with prospective partners and stakeholders.
  • Live Promotion: Your organization will be promoted across Deep Tech Canada's social media channels during the mission, increasing visibility and reach.

Our support doesn’t end when the trip does. We help ensure the mission delivers long-term value through:

  • Lead Generation Support: We assist with post-mission follow-up to nurture leads and advance conversations.
  • Ongoing Relationship Building: Continued engagement with market partners and international contacts to help deepen connections and convert opportunities into tangible outcomes.

We hit the target from start to finish by organizing itineraries, translating materials for international audiences, coordinating pavilions, and helping you build relationships before, during, and after the event.
