🇸🇬🇨🇦Delighted to welcome Victor Fedeli, Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade for Ontario, Canada, to MTI. 🍁Ontario is the largest province in Canada with ~40% of the national population. It also accounts for ~40% of Canada’s GDP. 🤝Minister Fedeli and I discussed opportunities to strengthen collaboration between Singapore and Ontario in trade, investment and innovation, including Fintech. I was encouraged to learn that Global Affairs Canada and the province of Ontario recently led a delegation of 8 Ontario companies to participate in the Singapore Fintech Festival 2024. 🙌I also welcomed the upcoming opening of Ontario's new Trade and Investment Office (TIO) in Singapore, an exciting milestone in our economic cooperation. The TIO will help boost links between our companies. It will help Ontario companies tap on Singapore as a gateway and launchpad to this region, and facilitate Singapore businesses looking at opportunities in Ontario. I look forward to working closely with Minister Fedeli and our Canadian counterparts to deepen our economic and commercial ties. Ministry of Trade and Industry (Singapore)
