As part of CIM Connect in Vancouver, MineConnect, the Mining Suppliers Association of British Columbia, 48° Nord International, and SIMSA carry on a well-established pan-Canadian tradition: an interprovincial hospitality event fostering human connections, collaboration, and mutual understanding among Canada's mining ecosystems. Designed as an open and authentic meeting space, this event brings together suppliers, mining companies, and partners from various provinces around presentations of concrete projects, followed by an informal networking session. More than a simple social event, this gathering aims to build lasting bridges between regions, stimulate the sharing of expertise, and encourage business collaborations grounded in trust and complementarity. The afternoon will spotlight projects led by recognized industry leaders, including Glencore and Eldorado Gold (Quebec) Inc., who will share their perspectives on their operations, needs, and opportunities for collaboration across Canada. This interprovincial tradition sits at the heart of the organizing partners' mission: strengthening a strong, connected, and forward-looking Canadian mining network.

Lunch Conference | Monday, May 4 | Quebec Delegation As part of CIM Connect 2026, 48° Nord International invites exhibitors and participants from the Quebec Delegation to an exclusive luncheon conference — a privileged space for genuine connections, open dialogue, and lasting collaboration at the heart of Canada's most important mining gathering. More than a networking event, this luncheon promotes an approach grounded in authenticity, transparency, and mutual value creation: understanding before proposing, offering solutions before selling, and building strong business relationships rooted in trust. The event will bring together recognized leaders from the North American mining industry, who will share their perspectives on market dynamics, supply chain challenges, and the conditions that foster winning, sustainable collaborations between mining companies, suppliers, and partners.
