GCXpo was held on Sept. 26 and drew a crowd of 1,700 and almost 80 exhibitors working in the “smart mobility” space. The show featured robots, drones and unmanned vehicles and the tech to support them. This was the third year for GCXpo, which was held at Area X.O in Ottawa’s west end. Area X.O was established to test smart mobility devices. The one-day event is held mostly outdoors and focuses on live demonstrations.
Invest Ottawa organized the event with the federal government as primary sponsor. “GCXpo demonstrates the growing leadership of innovators and companies from Canada’s Capital and across the country in the multi-billion-dollar global smart mobility market. It enables entrepreneurs and firms to showcase the impact of their homegrown solutions, and connect with prospective customers, investors and talent,” said Invest Ottawa’s CEO and president Sonya Shorey.
