In a gesture of warm hospitality, Canada recently welcomed the President of the Slovak Republic, H.E. Zuzana Čaputová, in Ottawa on her official state visit accompanied by a delegation of Slovakian entrepreneurs from the healthcare, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and green technologies fields. As part of Canada’s official state visit, Her Excellency inaugurated the Canada-Slovakia Business Forum in Toronto.
The Canada-Slovakia Business Forum provided a unique platform for entrepreneurs and business leaders to engage in meaningful discussions, share insights, and explore potential business opportunities between the two countries.
The agenda featured presentations by various companies and SARIO, shedding light on the diverse business landscape in Slovakia.
