Global Village Publishing has partnered with North Forge to produce INNOVATION Manitoba, a coffee-table book and AR video series showcasing the province’s innovation ecosystem. As Lead Sponsor, North Forge will help highlight the entrepreneurs and organizations shaping Manitoba’s future and strengthening its innovation landscape.
Global Village Publishing is extremely proud to announce that North Forge will be the lead sponsor of the next exciting
Canadian initiative: INNOVATION Manitoba.
Over the past several years, Global Village has proudly documented the stories of Canada’s most dynamic innovation
ecosystems in the critically acclaimed volumes — INNOVATE Toronto, INNOVATE Ottawa, INNOVATE Montreal,
INNOVATION Quebec, INNOVATE Vancouver, INNOVATE Alberta, and, most recently, INNOVATE Atlantic Canada.
These books have been made possible by the generous support of distinguished Lead Sponsors, including Air Canada,
MaRS Discovery District, the University of Calgary, NAV Canada, and the Quebec Innovation Council. North Forge is a
fitting and exciting addition to this prestigious group of national innovation leaders.
The inaugural edition of INNOVATION Manitoba will be an exquisitely produced coffee-table book and augmented
reality video series celebrating one of Canada’s most vibrant and fast-growing innovation communities.
Global Village Publishing has been producing top tier publications focusing on innovation ecosystems around the world
for many years. From emerging founders to established leaders, INNOVATION Manitoba will spotlight the people and
ideas shaping the future of Manitoba’s innovation landscape.
As Manitoba’s largest non-profit incubator, North Forge plays a pivotal role in nurturing innovation across the province.
Through its four-stage Founders Program — which guides entrepreneurs from ideation to investment readiness — and
its world-class FabLab equipped with more than $4 million in advanced prototyping equipment and technology, North
Forge has supported over 630 startups since the creation of its Founders Program in 2020. Its commitment to inclusive,
accessible, and impact-driven entrepreneurship continues to spark new companies, new jobs, and new opportunities
across Manitoba.
By stepping forward as Lead Sponsor of INNOVATION Manitoba, North Forge aims not only to highlight Manitoba’s
entrepreneurial successes, but also to champion the spirit of innovation that fuels the province’s economic growth and
global competitiveness.
“Our province is home to incredible talent and tenacity,” said Joelle Foster, President & CEO of North Forge. “This
partnership is about more than celebrating innovation; it’s about telling the stories of people who are solving
meaningful problems, creating technologies that matter, and building companies that strengthen our province’s future.
We’re honoured to help shine a national spotlight on the ambitious entrepreneurs who make Manitoba a place where
world-class innovation can thrive.”
Having North Forge onboard as the lead sponsor of the publication will ensure that INNOVATION Manitoba becomes a
landmark record of the province’s innovation ecosystem — capturing the pioneers, visionaries, and changemakers
driving Manitoba forward.
