The 2025 Atlantic Technology Summit: Uniting Tech Across the Atlantic

The most anticipated tech gathering in Atlantic Canada is back, and this year, it’s bigger, bolder, and more connected than ever. The 2025 Atlantic Technology Summit returns on November 19, but with a twist: it will be hosted in two locations simultaneously - Dartmouth, Nova Scotia and Dieppe (Moncton), New Brunswick - bridged by real-time programming and interactivity across both sites.

Theme & Focus

This year’s theme, “The Atlantic Edge: Talent, Growth & Sustainability,” will explore how the region can strengthen its tech ecosystem through:

• Developing and retaining tech talent in Atlantic Canada
• Scaling sustainable innovation and businesses
• Fostering meaningful growth and collaboration across provinces 

By combining two venues, attendees in either province can engage with keynote talks, panels, workshops, and networking - no matter where they are

Attendees will enjoy not just speeches and panels but also interactive experiences — shared Q&A, networking across venues, and content streamed seamlessly between the sites.

2025 features:
