Travel grant 2026, Canada, SCID 5-9 OCT 2026

Purpose and goal

Energy Node AB develops advanced materials for more efficient, safer and more resource-efficient heat management. A representative will participate in Sweden–Canada Innovation Days 2026 in Toronto with a focus on advanced materials and the battery value chain. The aim is to strengthen existing Canadian collaborations, establish new customer and partnership dialogues, and create opportunities for pilot projects, supplier development, investments and commercialization in North America.

Expected effects and result

Participation is expected to provide qualified customer, partner, supplier and investor contacts as well as a better understanding of the North American market. The goal is to identify applications for Heat Node, develop existing Canadian collaborations and initiate dialogues on pilot projects and technology integration. In the long term, this should contribute to increased exports, growth and a stronger supply chain as well as more efficient and sustainable energy systems for customers.

Planned approach and implementation

Prior to the trip, relevant contacts will be prioritized and presentation materials will be adapted to the battery and materials sector. On site, curated 1:1 meetings, study visits, networking and conference participation will be carried out. Existing Canadian collaborations will be followed up. After the trip, prioritized dialogues will be translated into concrete proposals for pilot projects, technical collaborations and business.
