In 2027, the Canadian Association of Research Administrators (CARA), will host the International Network of Research Management Societies (INORMS) Congress in Montréal, Canada from April 27-30.

The Congress program will be developed in partnership with L’Association des administratrices et administrateurs de recherche universitaire du Québec (ADARUQ), the National Council of University Research Administrators (NCURA), and the National Organization of Research Development Professionals (NORDP).

The Congress will take place at the Palais des congrès de Montréal. Located in the heart of a city known for its energy, joie de vivre and forward-thinking spirit, the Palais has been actively contributing to Montréal’s effervescence since Day One. Today, when people meet at the Palais, they come together in a carbon-neutral architectural masterpiece.

Accessible to all and by any means of transportation, surrounded by renowned restaurants and the most vibrant city life Montréal has to offer, the Palais throws its doors open wide for INORMS 2027.
