Unlocking the retrofit mission: market transformation in action

This is more than a webinar — it’s a strategic discussion to spark bold thinking, broaden the base of actors advancing retrofit acceleration, and explore lessons learned and global success.  

As DRAI and GNPP funding move toward their March 2027 sunset and landscape around retrofit accelerators and market transformation teams continues to evolve, this first Retrofit Mission convening brings together key allies, sector leaders, Retrofit Mission endorsers, and members of the broader retrofit ecosystem. The discussion will inform research and recommendations on what the future of retrofit acceleration and market transformation teams 

Join with us and continue crafting the future of retrofit transformation in Canada.

Together, we’ll:

• Push beyond the bubble: Challenge conventional approaches and explore how retrofit accelerators and market development teams can evolve and expand their impact while becoming self-sufficient.
• Build narrative and momentum: Start shaping a compelling case for renewed and expanded funding/programming beyond 2027.
• Spotlight opportunity: Explore models, both from within Canada and from around the world, that offer best practice, lessons learned, and inspirations.
• Catalyze engagement: Identify strategies for sustained involvement, advocacy, and proactive campaign-building toward future retrofit policy and investment.

This session is the first step in a broader movement — not just to defend what’s been built, but to imagine and co-create what could come next.
