This year, the global COVID-19 pandemic rapidly mobilized government and industry to collaborate and innovate, unlike never before, to achieve our joint objectives contributing to the health and safety of Canadians. Hear from senior leaders within government and industry on how they lead their organizations through this time of crisis to identify system-wide challenges and engage in new ways to develop innovative solutions. As we enter a second wave of the pandemic, panelists will reflect on some key challenges they anticipate and what measures have been put in place to overcome these challenges as we continue to collaborate moving forward. This high-level strategic dialogue sets the stage for numerous sessions throughout the conference where we will get a chance to hear from the technical experts from both government and industry on the specific pandemic related measures and their impacts.
