By means of the RFP, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is seeking proposals from bidders to design and fabricate a Canada pavilion for the annual Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) conference held in Toronto in March 2022.Lead by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), several federal departments and agencies are working together to have a joint in-person presence at the annual conference held in Toronto by the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada. At this time we are focussing on the development of an in-person pavilion for the Toronto conference. This conference is one of the top four mining conferences in the world and the federal government’s participation is multi-pronged: innovation, expertise and collaboration. Each participating department brings their own expertise to the pavilion – mineral knowledge and geoscience, investment opportunities, engagement with Indigenous communities, engagement with other countries, anti-corruption enforcement.The purpose of this requirement is to design and fabricate a Canada pavilion that presents our consolidated message for the federal government (collaboration, innovation, expertise) and allows for individual messages from the participants with the participants being federal government departments/entities. The pavilion should be open yet have semi-private areas, and be as visible as possible across the show floor.
