The commitment includes building out Canadian-hosted, AI-ready digital infrastructure and operations, with advanced data, security, and operational controls, and increasing in-country expertise through a new Canada Centre of Excellence and approximately 100 new high-skilled, Canada-based jobs. This multi-year commitment deepens ServiceNow's Canadian footprint and strengthens the company's ability to support public sector organizations on their digital modernization and AI goals.

Our customers are asking for greater efficiency and the ability to scale with AI, and this investment ensures we can continue to deliver exactly that, securely and quickly."
The new Canada Centre of Excellence will expand ServiceNow's in-country expertise with approximately 100 new Canada-based headcount that are focused on partnering with Canadian customers to accelerate their ServiceNow deployments, further AI and cloud expertise, and deliver value quickly.
"Advancing secure AI adoption and digital sovereignty is essential to building a resilient Canadian economy," said Evan Solomon, Canada's Minister of AI and Digital Innovation . "Collaborations like this show how together public sector and industry can drive trusted innovation that benefits Canadians."
This investment marks the next step in ServiceNow's long-term commitment to Canada. As national public sector needs continue to evolve, ServiceNow will continue investing in the people, technology, and partnerships that help public sector organizations modernize and move confidently into an AI-enabled future.
