Coventry returns to OEMC for 2026

“There has never been a more important time to support local businesses,” says Marc Andre Way, CEO of Ottawa’s Coventry Connections.
Coventry is sponsoring the transportation for the Ontario East Municipal Conference for the second year in a row at the event which is held September 9-11 at the Ottawa Conference Centre. The 2025 event was deemed a true win/win/win sponsorship as event attendees were delighted with the big, beautiful new shuttles Coventry sent to transport them to downtown events, while Coventry gained new clients and business through the exposure.
In addition to providing special transportation considerations, Coventry’s Ali Enad, General Manager of Para Operations and Driver Programs will provide a keynote session designed for municipal transportation managers and planners at 4:10pm on Wednesday, September 9th.
Enad has developed his presentation “Transportation Is More than the Ride: What municipalities should expect from a transportation service provider” specifically to provide the advice and information staff and transportation co-ordinators need to achieve the levels of service their organization requires.
Coventry’s 2026 sponsorship again includes a discount for attendees using BlueLine Taxi through its app when they enter a special event code.
The Ontario East Municipal Conference (OEMC) has been the premier event for economic development professionals, municipal leaders, and industry stakeholders. Focused on fostering growth, innovation, and investment, OEMC brings together key players to exchange ideas, discuss best practices, and build stronger communities.
