This event builds on the success of the inaugural Canada-Saudi Education Partnership Forum\, held in Riyadh in May 2024\, with the Saudi Minister of Education headlining. The forthcoming Forum is scheduled for Monday\, March 30\, 2026\, at the Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy at the University of Toronto. The event will feature panel sessions\, business-to-business meetings and a networking reception. \nPlease note\, on Tuesday\, March 31\, the Saudi delegation will be visiting Ontario post-secondary institutions. \nWho Attends\nThe Forum will convene senior leadership\, including Presidents\, Vice Presidents\, Deans\, and Global Engagement leads\, from leading Canadian and Saudi educational institutions (universities\, colleges\, and polytechnics) as well as relevant public and private sector entities. Participants will explore institutional collaborations\, including\, but not limited to\, joint study programs\, collaborative research initiatives\, curriculum development\, student and faculty exchanges\, and technical and vocational training partnerships. \nWhy Attend\nThis high-level Forum will facilitate structured business-to-business (B2B) meetings\, institutional site visits\, and opportunities for meaningful networking and dialogue.
