Capital, Resources, and Saskatchewan’s Role in the Global Economy
Prepare to be captivated by an evening filled with networking opportunities, insightful discussions, and thought-provoking presentations. This is your chance to connect with industry leaders, gain valuable insights, and be part of a truly remarkable experience.
The event will kick off with a networking reception, where you can mingle with fellow attendees while enjoying a variety of appetizers. As you take your seat for dinner, Brad Wall will share his perspective on Saskatchewan’s economic strengths and long-term opportunities, with a particular focus on commodities, natural resources, agriculture, and energy—and how these sectors position Saskatchewan not just to participate, but to win in an increasingly competitive global economy.
Saskatchewan has long been a quiet powerhouse, supplying the world with food, fuel, and critical resources. As global demand for food security, energy reliability, and critical minerals continues to rise, the province is uniquely positioned to play an outsized role. Mr. Wall will reflect on:
• What Saskatchewan gets right economically
• Where the province has a right to win on the global stage
• How capital, policy, and leadership can work together to unlock long-term value
• Why Saskatchewan’s story matters now more than ever to investors, business leaders, and policymakers
