In 2025, Canadian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are undergoing a digital renaissance, with artificial intelligence (AI) at the forefront. Once the domain of tech giants, AI is now a powerful equalizer, empowering SMEs to boost productivity, personalize customer experiences, and streamline operations.

According to Statistics Canada, the adoption of AI among businesses has doubled since 2024, with 12.2% now integrating tools such as chatbots, text analysis, and automated marketing into their daily workflows. Nearly 75% of SMEs plan to increase AI investment this year, with 63% focused on generative AI solutions. And despite fears of job displacement, 89% of AI adopters have retained headcount, instead reskilling teams and transforming workflows.
