Icelandic–Canadian Networking Event

On the occasion of a visit by a trade delegation from the aluminium industry in Saguenay, Canada, the Icelandic Aluminium Cluster (Álklasinn), together with Canadian partners, held a joint networking event focused on aluminium technology solutions.

The Icelandic–Canadian B2B mixer for the aluminium industry took place on Tuesday, 17 February, at Tæknisetur. It brought together representatives from industry, research institutions and other stakeholders. The event welcomed a Canadian delegation of 10 companies, along with representatives from the Canadian Embassy in Iceland and member companies of the Aluminium Cluster.

The event offered a valuable platform for networking and informal discussion, supporting the development of future projects, technical collaboration and knowledge sharing. It builds on the successful visit of an Icelandic aluminium industry delegation to Québec in September 2025. Strong attendance throughout the afternoon reflected a shared commitment to accelerating sustainable aluminium technology and strengthening ties between the aluminium communities in Iceland and Canada.

The Aluminium Cluster looks forward to continuing this dialogue and turning the strong interest expressed by both sides into concrete collaborative projects that support a more sustainable and competitive aluminium industry.
