TAICO July 2026 Meetup @TrendAI

Registration and Event Details

Please note that we are using Meetup.com for event registration and you must register through that link to attend. Seating is limited so please register early. Thank you and see you there!

Our goal is to bring artificial intelligence and cybersecurity together. To do that, we need to explore what’s happening in AI and what’s happening in cybersecurity, and where the two intersect and collide. We’re also working to understand how we solve problems in these areas, what that looks like, and how Canada can and will participate.

With that in mind, we’re pleased to announce our speakers and the agenda for our next meeting!
