Infection Prevention and Control Canada’s National Conference and Industry Showcase returns as a hybrid conference. We are excited to bring together our in-person conference and our virtual conference in this new format and thank you for your interest in joining as an exhibitor for the 2023 IPAC Canada National Conference on May 28 - 31, 2023. 

IPAC Canada’s annual conference attracts infection prevention and control professionals of all backgrounds, including nurses, physicians, epidemiologists, environmental services managers, medical laboratory technologists, dental professionals, pre-hospital/emergency services professionals, and many other healthcare sectors across the spectrum of care. This is a premier event for companies providing products including, but not limited to, hand hygiene products, cleaning and disinfection products, antiseptics and antimicrobial agents, personal protective equipment, purification systems, software, and healthcare construction and renovation services.  Take advantage of this new format with more avenues than ever before to connect, learn, and grow. 

Conference Safety
IPAC Canada is excited to host everyone in person again, safely. As frontline representatives in the fight against COVID-19, our delegates must go above and beyond to reduce the risk of spreading to those who are vulnerable. The safety of all attendees is of utmost importance to IPAC Canada.

• IPAC Canada is encouraging all in-person attendees to wear a properly fitting mask covering their nose and mouth while in the conference space, unless eating or drinking. Masks will be available at the registration table as physical distancing may not be possible
• Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the venue.
• Staying up to date with your vaccinations is strongly recommended (e.g. COVID-19 and yearly influenza vaccines)
• IPAC Canada’s 2023 National Education Conference has been planned and structured with the safety and comfort of our guests in mind. Once onsite, however, we need the support and collaboration of all attendees to manage risk and keep each other safe. Should you develop symptoms prior to the event, we ask that you do not participate in in-person conference activities. Email us at IPACCanada@buksa.comand we’d be happy to connect you virtually.
