Support Canada's Pre-CSPC Summit on Impact Infrastructure
Sponsorship offers organizations the opportunity to support a high-level national convening while gaining visibility, access, and engagement with leaders across government, social finance, NGOs, workforce, innovation, and measurement.
Sponsors help power the Summit
Social Impact Summit Canada 2026 is an invitation-first national convening taking place in Ottawa on November 24, 2026 — the day before CSPC. The Summit will bring together senior leaders from government, NGOs, foundations, social finance, workforce development, innovation, employers, technology, and impact measurement.
Sponsors help make this national platform possible. Sponsorship provides a way to demonstrate leadership, support cross-sector collaboration, and engage a curated audience of decision-makers and implementation partners through structured visibility, access, and activation.
Partners vs. Sponsors
Partners help shape the Summit. They contribute knowledge, networks, community reach, and strategic insight. Partners are selected based on mission alignment.
Sponsors help fund and activate the Summit. They provide financial or in-kind support and receive defined visibility, access, brand recognition, sponsored programming opportunities, and activation benefits.
