Artificial intelligence in the Cloud is used to access unprecedented data for scaling up their applications to set industry standards and drive innovation by maximizing existing assets of the businesses. Several leading cloud service providers are collaborating and partnering with leading tech players for making the use of AI technology for better efficiency and increase the revenues of the companies across different sectors. For instance, in 2020, Royal Bank of Canada, AI and its AI research institute Borealis have made partnership with Red Hat and NVIDIA to develop a new AI computing private cloud platform to deliver intelligent software applications and boost operational efficiency of the customers in banking sector and to help keep pace with rapid technology changes and evolving customer expectations.

Leading technology companies such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook etc. are making huge investment in Canada for implementing AI due to growing demand by SMEs and large enterprises to optimize the business operations.  Moreover, the nation is currently taking advantage of AI technology. Large organizations such as Facebook, Huawei, Google, and other companies are increasingly spending on research hubs in Quebec, Alberta, and Ontario in Canada. For instance, in 2020, Google Canada has invested USD 3.4 Million in Montréal-based artificial intelligence (AI) research institute Mila for continuing its research in AI and machine learning technology. Google has invested over USD 13 Million in academic research in Canada over the past ten years.  Thus, it created a massive demand for the Artificial Intelligence (AI) market in Canada. Also, the Canadian government has planned an investment of USD 100 funding over the forecast period up to 2026 for pursuing and developing artificial intelligence.

On the basis of End-User, Healthcare segment is expected to lead the Canada Artificial Intelligence (AI) market during the forecast period. The increasing adoption and launching of these AI-based technologies in the healthcare industry by the leading players with the surge in the number of growing infectious and chronic ailments in Canada have propelled the Canada healthcare market growth. For instance, in 2020, Novartis, one of the leading healthcare providers has launched a new digital health innovation hub in Canada for helping and developing “scalable, digital solutions” for healthcare providers and patients. They formed a strategic alliance with Novartis in 2019. The Novartis held Canadian Biome Digital Innovation Hub by making a strategic alliance with Montreal at its artificial intelligence research institute, Mila.
