Inside The Room: Featured Summit Conversations and 2026 Direction

Preview the priorities, themes, and strategic direction of Summit 2026, from critical minerals to Arctic defence, energy, and infrastructure.

In this episode of the Drumbeats podcast, Co-Chair Mark Magnacca offers a preview of what’s ahead at the 2026 Summit, a platform where Indigenous leadership and institutional capital converge.

Building on our previous episode’s examination of Bill C-5, which strengthens the recognition of Indigenous rights and governance, this episode shows how these shifts are actively reshaping investment priorities, project design, and capital flows across Canada.
