While we wind down another productive year at the Exchange, we’re spotlighting our standout moments of 2026. This February, we skied the Austrian slopes at Interbourse, celebrated the start of the 2026 Winter Olympics, sponsored and attended the CSTA Annual Winter Vendor Fair, visited sunny Miami Beach for an edition of the Going Public series, and released the final issue of our magazine.

CSE CEO Richard Carleton hit the slopes in Obertauern, Austria, for the 57th edition of Interbourse, one of the largest annual international gatherings of financial industry professionals.
Taking place in the stunning Austrian Alps, this year’s event welcomed hundreds of financial market leaders, including representatives from exchanges, clearing firms, trading firms, institutional brokerages, and financial technology firms, for networking, lively discussions, and a friendly ski competition.
Kudos to Team Munich for hosting Interbourse 2026, and thanks for having us. We were proud to sponsor this year’s event!

The Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics was a nail-biter from start to finish, and as proud Canadians, we were excited to cheer on Team Canada.
The CSE team gathered at the Exchange headquarters in Toronto to celebrate the start of the Games with some socializing and friendly competition.
We continued to follow Canada’s epic performance, from the men’s and women’s hockey teams’ incredible plays on the ice to dominating the podium in freestyle skiing and speed skating to a whopping 38 total top-five finishes. Once again, this year proved that when it comes to winter sports, Canada is a force to be reckoned with.
We congratulate every athlete who represented Canada, as well as the scores of coaches and supporters who helped them in their Olympic journey. You have made Canada proud!

Later in the month, we had a fantastic time sponsoring and attending the CSTA Annual Winter Vendor Fair 2026 in Toronto!
CSE Director of Listings Development Philip Cox and Vice President of Business Development Stuart Schady enjoyed joining our peers in the trading community for an exploration of the innovations and collaborations shaping the evolving landscape of the Canadian capital markets.
Thank you to the Canadian Securities Traders Association for having us!

There’s never a bad excuse to visit sunny Miami Beach – especially when it’s to co-host the always-popular event, Going Public and Raising Capital in Canada.
It was a productive afternoon exploring the considerations and benefits of going public in Canada on the CSE, alongside our fellow host Corporate Counsel, event partner Cap Circle Network, and presenting CSE issuers, Kuya Silver (CSE:KUYA) and Upside Gold (CSE:UG).
Thank you to every speaker who shared unique insights from within the Canadian capital markets.
And, of course, thank you to everyone who attended and joined us for the rooftop networking reception at Watr. Until next time!
