Asenion at GITEX GLOBAL 2025 in Dubai

Asenion co-founder and Chief Product Officer Fion Lee-Madan spoke at GITEX GLOBAL in Dubai, the world's largest tech, AI and startup show.

The week coincided with the announcement of new partnerships between Canada and the UAE by Canada's Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation, Evan Solomon:

“This is how we diversify trade, strengthen our digital economy, and build the future, together.”

Just a month earlier, Fion spoke at a Partnership on AI working group about the AI assurance ecosystem in the Global South. This trip was a real “walk the talk” moment, seeing those partnerships take shape firsthand.

Thank you to The Firehood team, Praduman Aggarwal and Arun Basandani, Canada's Trade Commissioner in Dubai, for championing Canadian tech on the global stage.
