It is official and we are very proud to announce that the INCYBER Forum Canada has chosen Ottawa/Gatineau (the National Capital Region) to host this year’s premier pan-Canadian and International Cybersecurity and AI safety conference, which will take place 1-3 December 2026 at the Roger’s Conference Centre in beautiful downtown Ottawa with pre-events across the river in Gatineau.

This is an exciting development as Ottawa and Gatineau are a region recognized for being a national hub for technological innovation, cyber security and digital resilience. 

Once again we will bring public and private sector leaders, International delegations, primes, small and medium sized businesses, government, military, security, law enforcement and the cybersecurity professionals to a location with a high concentration of key decision-makers across all sectors.

We wish to thank the city of Montreal and the province of Quebec for their outstanding support for the last four years and for their continued support as we expand our efforts across the country.

This new announcement would not have been possible without the support of the Federal, Provincial and Municipal governments and by our strategic partners and sponsors. I want to especially thank the City of Ottawa, Tourism Ottawa and Invest Ottawa’s great team of professionals for their excellent work in making this move to the City possible.

Mark your Calendars and see you at the INCYBER Forum Canada 1-3 December 2026.

Director General, INCYBER Forum Canada
