I had the pleasure of participating in the ‘Montréal × Seattle: AI Community Connect’ panel, a discussion that brought together voices from two of North America’s most vibrant AI ecosystems to explore how we can collaborate, build bridges, and accelerate innovation together.
The topic was close to my heart: connecting Montréal’s startup excellence with West Coast tech to unlock new opportunities in artificial intelligence.
The event took place on October 29 in Seattle, and it was a fantastic opportunity for founders, researchers, and ecosystem builders to come together and exchange ideas about the future of AI and cross-border collaboration.
I was joined on the panel by:
- Carl Chouinard – CEO, Vooban Labs
- Josh Jensen – Co-Founder & CEO, Inspectify
- Rheia Khalaf – Director of Partnerships, Mila – Quebec AI Institute
Together, we discussed how Montréal’s research-driven AI culture and Seattle’s product-focused innovation can complement one another to foster new partnerships, startups, and research collaborations across borders.
