Engineering the Net-Zero Frontier Across Land and Sea

Set in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, this forum builds directly on our strategic FFI Dialogues around the world, including Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi. We are actively curating a vital cross-border conversation that unites the dynamic energy, technology, and investment ecosystems of the Gulf, Canada, and California. By connecting these three powerhouse regions, we invite the most ambitious innovators, engineers, and strategic investors from across FFI’s global network to join this dialogue and shape a highly strategic capital and infrastructure corridor.

This is not a trade show or a series of theoretical keynotes. It is a focused assembly dedicated to the physicality of the transition and the mechanics of strategic capital deployment. Our agenda centers on the tangible: the breakthrough hardware, the clean energy grid architectures, and the scalable carbon-removal technologies that are ready to move from the lab to the landscape.

We are gathering the builders of the next industrial revolution to align on the venture capital, institutional funding, policy, and engineering requirements needed to scale.
