Spark the fire
2017-05-12 @ 4:15 am - 11:30 am
Ontario’s Ring of Fire represents a $60-billion multi-generational economic opportunity, arguably the world’s most promising mineral
development project in more than a century. However, this potential is shrouded by both technical and societal challenges, multi-level
political decision-making, dynamic risks, and palpable uncertainty.
The scale and complexity of these challenges makes the Ring of Fire a mega-project. As born problem solvers, it is time that Ontario’s
engineers ask themselves:
How can engineers spark the fire and realize the untapped potential of Ontario’s north?
Join engineering, industry, government, academic, and First Nations leaders for an important discussion on the future of Ontario’s
north. On innovation, energy, infrastructure, environmental stewardship, and relations with First Nations Communities—our broad
spectrum of presenters will be answering tough questions and charting the future development of Ontario’s north.
