We are excited to announce that we will continue our investment promotional program in 2022. This program is designed to showcase Japanese investors with business opportunities in Canada. We will highlight 6 industries at each webinar featuring innovative Canadian companies.
As Canada positions itself as a key global producer of copper, nickel and cobalt and hosts advanced mineral projects for rare earth elements, lithium, graphite and vanadium, the global market shows high interest into the Canadian market. At our next webinar, we will introduce the industry trend in natural resources in Canada and also invite some expert from the industry.
