THE MAIN STAGE
The Main Stage is the beating heart of UNITE 2026—a marquee programme of global leaders, provocative thinkers and decision-makers tackling the forces reshaping energy, technology and the world around us.
Curated and hosted by Holly Ransom, the programme takes delegates from the biggest geopolitical and economic forces shaping energy today to the technologies, infrastructure and human leadership required to build what comes next.
Across two days, we will ask the questions that matter: How do we build an energy system that is secure, reliable, scalable and resilient in a world being reshaped by geopolitical conflict, AI-driven demand, and intensifying global competition?
THE SIDE STAGE
SYSTEMS THAT SCALE
Canada has no shortage of energy resources, ambitious projects, innovative companies or capital.
The question is whether we can turn that potential into reality—and do it at scale.
Running alongside the Main Stage, Systems That Scale gets practical about what it takes to move from announcements to execution.
Across two days, the Side Stage explores the infrastructure, technologies, partnerships, capital and people already creating momentum—and the barriers that still stand in the way.
VIP "HOUR WITHS"
Some of the most valuable moments at UNITE happen after the keynote ends.
Hour-Withs bring headline speakers into the VIP Lounge for intimate, informal conversations with a small group of VIP delegates. This is your opportunity to hear the thinking behind the ideas presented on the Main Stage and explore the questions there wasn't time to answer.
Sit alongside fellow VIPs, executives, founders, investors and sponsors in an environment designed for genuine exchange. This isn't a presentation. It's a conversation.
