Both displays show a video and graphical montage highlighting Canada’s leading sectors and landscapes. Float4 Interactive is providing the interactivity kit to allow multiple users to interact with the displays.

This included a special Information Communications Technology (ICT) day on 6th August, put on by Invest in Canada in association with the Financial Times, as well as a technology showcase organised by Invest Ottawa on behalf of the Consider Canada Alliance.
