Dear colleagues,
The 14th Canadian International Conference on Composites (CANCOM-2026)will take place August 10-13, 2026, at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. CANCOM is the flagship event of the Canadian Association for Composite Structures and Materials (CACSMA). It brings together researchers, industry professionals, and government partners to exchange ideas, strengthen collaborations, and share advances in composite materials and structures. Over the years, the conference has become the central meeting point for the Canadian composites community while also attracting international participation.

The conference program will span the full spectrum of composites research topics:
•Advances in experimental analysis and modelling.
•Numerical modelling of materials and structures.
•Non-destructive methods.
•Automation in manufacturing, data generation, and analysis.
•Advancements in materials and manufacturing processes.
•Sustainable materials and technologies.
•AI and machine learning methods.

Please take note of the following key dates:
•Call for Abstracts Opens: October 1, 2025
•Abstract Submission Deadline: January 15, 2026
•Notification of Acceptance: January 31, 2026
