We honourably invite you to participate in the 5th International Invention Innovation Competition in Canada, iCAN 2020 organized by Toronto International Society of Innovation & Advanced Skills (TISIAS), supported by the Innovation Initiative Co-operative Inc. „The Inventors Circle”, International Federation of Inventors Associations (IFIA) and World Invention Intellectual Property Associations (WIIPA).

This year will celebrate the event’s 5th anniversary of iCAN so we have prepared an enhanced version of awards and recognitions for our participants. Please also note that this year due to COVID-19, the event will only be held online for the long-distance mode participants and there will be no physical exhibition in Toronto. While the event would usually hold its function at North York Memorial Community Hall in Toronto, Canada every summer (2016~2019), this year will be based on „Join from Home” only. Although this year’s iCAN will be progressed only online, we have set to prepare the competition in the most effective way for our participants to express their creative ideas, innovative products and projects during the competition.
