Membership reinforces TPTN’s role in advancing AI-powered, policy-aligned export tools for Canadian SMEs
Montreal, QC – June 27, 2025 — The TransPacific Trade Nexus (TPTN), Canada’s AI-native trade facilitation platform, is proud to join the Canada-ASEAN Business Council (CABC), reinforcing its commitment to inclusive, policy-aligned digital trade between Canada and the Indo-Pacific.
Designed from the ground up to support Canadian exporters with smarter, faster, and more trustworthy trade infrastructure, TPTN is now entering its prototype phase with support from four provinces and formal validation from the Digital Governance Council (DGC). The 2025 pilot will focus on onboarding SMEs in high-priority sectors such as agri-food and cleantech, with a roadmap toward deeper ASEAN integration.
“TPTN is trade infrastructure—not a marketplace, not a directory. It’s built to remove real-world barriers for SMEs by embedding compliance, cultural fluency, and digital trust directly into how cross-border trade flows,” said Chris Papp, Founder & CEO of TPTN. “Joining the CABC is an important step in ensuring we’re listening to ASEAN partners, aligning with their needs, and scaling this platform with purpose.”
As a CABC member, TPTN will work with public and private sector leaders to accelerate digital trade across the Canada–ASEAN corridor. The platform’s modular design, multilingual AI engine, and embedded ESG and blockchain transparency tools offer a differentiated, future-ready model for digital trade infrastructure.
TPTN’s architecture is built for seamless integration with customs, logistics, and compliance actors across Canadian and ASEAN jurisdictions, with potential for government-hosted and white-label deployments as the platform evolves.
