The IIAL International Conference on Applied Sciences of Innovation and Sustainability (CASIS 2025), held on June 16, 2025 at Toronto Metropolitan University, brought together educators, researchers, industry leaders, and public-sector changemakers to explore breakthrough ideas and actionable solutions.

With both in-person and virtual attendance, the event showcased eight distinct conference tracks, including:
