During this annual summit, CEA brings together electricity sector CEOs and C-level representatives from across Canada, council and committee chairs, corporate partners, and elected officials.

The Summit is often attended by CEA membership groups including Toronto Hydro, Ontario Power, TC Energy and more, and has featured well known speakers including Amber Mack, Peter Mansbridge and Justin Trudeau. This year, it will feature speakers from Hydro Quebec, the Edison Electric Institute, the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), Oracle and many more.

NexTech will work with CEA to transform the 2020 Powering Partnerships Summit into a four-day online event, offering valued global stakeholders an opportunity to attend and participate in conversations from anywhere in the world. The event will retain all the features of CEA’s annual Summit in a virtual capacity including keynote addresses, award sessions and panel discussions through the enterprise-level streaming and on-demand content capabilities of InfernoAR. With the scalability of this platform, NexTech will also enable CEA to extend its visibility and opportunities through these global, virtual events.

Evan Gappelberg, CEO of NexTech AR comments “We continue to execute on our business plan which is to invest in hiring top executives to support the rapid build-out of our AR and virtual experience platforms both of which are becoming the platform of choice for global enterprise and government agencies. The presentations at CEA’s 2020 Virtual Powering Partnerships Summit will focus on resilient transformation and there is no better way to honor that then by incorporating transformational change into the way their events are hosted during the pandemic. We are thrilled to provide our platform and services to the Canadian Electricity Association for their annual events this year. Like many industry leaders, electricity executives are navigating a great deal of changes and uncertainty today, he continues, “InfernoAR is well-suited to provide these industry leaders with a secure and reliable platform that will enable collaboration and spark innovation.”
