[News](https://www.payments.ca/insights/news-research?field_article_type=24) # The 2022 Payments Canada SUMMIT shifts to a virtual event January 18, 2022 Each year we look forward to hosting the payment ecosystem at The Payments Canada SUMMIT, our meeting place to exchange ideas on the future-state of the payment industry. Over the last few weeks, we have been closely monitoring and evaluating the situation around COVID-19 and the Omicron variant, and arrived at the decision that The 2022 SUMMIT will shift to a virtual event. This ensures we are taking the necessary measures to protect the health and safety of Canadians and The SUMMIT participants. We are excited to continue these important discussions April 26 -28 on the future of payments in an online forum. In addition to the rich and valuable content [you have come to expect from The SUMMIT](https://www.youtube.com/c/PaymentsCanada/playlists?view=50&sort=dd&shelf_id=1), our program will feature interactive roundtables, networking opportunities and other innovative ways to keep you connected.
