November 3 & 4, 2025
Join us this year for our annual conference in the heart of Montreal, QC, hosted at the newly renovated Marriott Chateau Champlain! Nestled in the city’s vibrant downtown, this hotel offers the perfect blend of modern elegance and historic charm. We’ll be just steps away from Montreal’s iconic attractions—whether it’s strolling through Old Montreal, visiting the bustling Quartier des Spectacles, or enjoying world-class dining. Mark your calendars for November 3 & 4, and don’t miss out on reconnecting with the incredible simulation community, in one of Canada’s most dynamic cities!
AI in Simulation: Ethics, Evidence, and Execution
At SIM Expo 2025, we’re diving into one of the most transformative forces in healthcare simulation: Artificial Intelligence. Reflecting its rapid rise to ubiquity, we will explore not just what’s possible, but what’s responsible. From future-looking innovations to real-world applications, we’ll tackle the ethical considerations, examine the latest evidence, and showcase how AI is being implemented successfully — and where it’s falling short. Join us to engage with experts and colleagues, to see what they are doing with AI, how you can do it, its limitations, and to imagine what’s possible.
The SIM Expo is Canada’s premier gathering of simulation enthusiasts. It is a true multidisciplinary conference, which hosts everyone from the simulation community—from a variety of professions—including clinicians, researchers, and educators. It is a unique, annual opportunity for great minds in healthcare simulation to unite, collaborate on current issues in simulation, share knowledge, and advance simulation.
