What makes Canadian Dealmakers different than other award programs?
As the only program of its kind in Canada, the Canadian Dealmakers takes a unique approach to these industry awards. Unlike other programs, Canadian Dealmakers is:

• Free to applicants. Your only investment is approximately 15 minutes to complete the nomination form.
• Limited only to Canadian companies and dealmakers.
• Much more than an award ceremony. We also offer year-round opportunities for networking, education and the sharing of best practices.
• Focused on a broad range of industry segments, including oil and gas, basic materials, industrials, consumer goods, consumer services, telecommunications, utilities, financial and technology.
