Annual Conference Winnipeg 2015
We’d like to welcome you to the FEI Canada Annual Conference and the city of Winnipeg, where we know you will enjoy memorable experiences.
FEI Canada’s 2015 conference is a must-attend event for all our members and their guests! FEI Canada’s annual national conference and exhibit forum provides a platform for the best and brightest in our country to come together to network, exchange ideas, learn and find solutions to current challenges.
This conference will provide the necessary tools to implement success and resources to keep pace in these demanding times. Here’s a look at what the FEI Canada conference has to offer:
Known for its friendly and welcoming spirit, Winnipeg is a diverse multicultural city with a rich and varied history. Beginning as an aboriginal trading centre, Winnipeg was at the heart of the country’s fur trade and instrumental in developing Canada’s gateway to the west. Home to a grain exchange that once rivalled the largest markets in the world, Winnipeg’s architecture and neighbourhoods reflect the profound character of this once small prairie town.
Over the last decades, Winnipeg has developed into a cosmopolitan city complete with top-notch restaurants, swanky boutiques, exciting attractions and an arts and culture scene that bursts with talent and originality.
We look forward to spending time with you!
WELCOME TO WINNIPEG
