B2B GATEWAY COLOMBIA
​


Connecting CANADIAN AND COLOMBIAN COMPANIES IN THE IT AND DIGITAL CREATIVE SECTORS

COLOMBIAN IT & DIGITAL CREATIVE COMPANIES ARE READY!

The objective of the GATEWAY to Trade Colombia programme is to promote trade in services between Colombian and Canadian companies, in the information technology and digital creative sectors - more specifically, animation, software and mobile development, film production, VR/AR, and digital content production.​

27 top Colombia companies in these sectors have been selected to participate in the Gateway to Trade programme, in order to prepare for doing business with Canadian partners through training, coaching, export planning and export marketing support.

14 of these companies will be in Toronto and Hamilton from May 8th to 11th to conduct one-on-one meetings to explore the potential for future business with Canadian firms. 

In mid June, a delegation of Canadian companies will be selected to participate in a trade mission to Cartagena to meet with these 27 companies as well as dozens others at the LAB4 conference, which will host visitors from the four Pacific Alliance countries – Colombia, Chile, Peru and Mexico.

Registrations are now open for B2B meetings on May 8, to take place at the Ontario Investment and Trade Centre in downtown Toronto, and May 10 at the McMaster Innovation Park in Hamilton.

Our strategic alliance partners have been instrumental in helping to connect the right companies. This includes Interactive Ontario, the City of Hamilton, the Region of Niagara and others.

You are invited to arrange a meeting with one or more of our visiting companies between 12pm to 5pm on Tuesday, May 8th in Toronto, or between 12pm to 5pm on Thursday, May 10th in Hamilton. By arranging a meeting(s), you are also invited to join us for a networking lunch to kick off the B2B session at 12pm on either day. You can view brief, one-page profiles of each of these high-quality companies here and register for a meeting(s). One of our Gateway to Trade team members will confirm your meeting(s) and provide any further information you might need.
