ICI Canada at Research Money 2025
Reframing global risks as catalysts for Canadian innovation and economic renewal

We’re proud to announce that two of ICI’s members — Alexander Zelenski and David Watters — will be speaking at the Research Money 2025 conference in the session titled “Turning Global Risks Into Opportunities for Canada.”
This presentation and panel will explore how Canada’s R&D and innovation ecosystem can respond to today’s pressing global risks—such as climate change, geopolitical instability, and disruptive technologies—and turn them into pathways for sustainable economic growth.
Alexander Zelenski, ICI’s Senior Polycrisis Analyst, brings a systems lens and global perspective from his work across higher education and start-ups. David Watters, ICI President and veteran policy strategist, offers decades of experience in shaping Canada’s innovation and economic frameworks.
Together, they’ll help chart a path forward for managing global uncertainty while building a resilient, forward-looking economy.
