Speakers will remain available throughout the day, giving attendees the opportunity to continue the conversation, exchange ideas and build meaningful connections beyond the stage.

From Brampton In Motion to the Brampton Economic Summit 2026 

The Brampton in Motion Symposium began as a focused conversation on housing, development and transportation. As Brampton’s growth challenges have become increasingly connected, the event has evolved with them.

The Brampton Economic Summit broadens the conversation to include transit, housing, employment lands, energy, talent attraction, infrastructure investment and the decisions affecting Brampton’s economy.

The change is not about moving away from the original focus. It is about connecting those issues to a larger economic agenda and bringing more business, government and community perspectives into the room.

Building on the 2025 Symposium

The 2025 Brampton in Motion Symposium brought together leaders from government, industry, academia and civil society for a full day of discussion and collaboration.

Highlights included:

• Featured speakers including Minister Sarkaria and Minister Flack
• Panels on transportation, development, policy and planning
• A transportation whitepaper presentation
• Breakout sessions on downtown revitalization, the creative sector and workforce housing
• Networking between business leaders, elected officials and community partners

These conversations helped create the foundation for a broader event focused on the interconnected issues affecting Brampton’s economic growth.
