Plant Magazine and CanadianManufacturing.com are conducting the annual Advanced Manufacturing Outlook Survey, Canada’s only national research study focused exclusively on the adoption and investment trends shaping the future of manufacturing.

This year’s survey goes beyond technology trends to also explore how manufacturers are navigating today’s economic pressures, including tariffs, inflation, and supply chain volatility.

It takes less than 12 minutes to complete and will help shape the 2026 Advanced Manufacturing Outlook Report, offering critical insight into:

• The current state of technology implementation in Canadian manufacturing
• Strategic responses to inflation, supply chain challenges, and trade barriers
• Investment trends and the future direction of the connected factory

The final report will be published this fall, packed with data, analysis, and expert commentary to help manufacturers benchmark their progress and plan for 2026 and beyond.

Complete the survey and you’ll be entered to win a $500 Best Buy Gift Card.
