Researching the changing Canadian IT landscape

Canada’s technology services market is changing rapidly. 

!

Why research matters

Canadian presence and Canadian control are not the same.

Ownership can change quickly, and the implications may not be visible in a provider’s brand.

Areas Of Research

01

Ownership & Consolidation

Tracking acquisitions, investments, mergers and consolidation across Canada’s technology services market.

02

Foreign Ownership

Identifying Canadian technology providers that have become part of foreign-controlled organizations.

03

Canadian Technology Capability

Understanding the scale and importance of Canada’s domestically owned technology services sector.

04

Operational Sovereignty

Examining the implications of foreign ownership and external corporate control over strategically important technology services.

05

Procurement & Sovereignty

Exploring how ownership and control can become considerations in enterprise and public-sector technology procurement.

06

Market Trends

Following the evolution of Canada’s MSP, VAR, professional services, cybersecurity and technology infrastructure markets.

WHY RESEARCH MATTERS

Ownership can change quickly!

A company that is Canadian-owned today may become foreign-controlled tomorrow. The reverse can also occur.

The Matrix is therefore intended to be a living source of information rather than a static list.
