Hello all,
Bombardier/Airbus AN HISTORIC PARTNERSHIP FOR QUÉBEC’S AEROSPACE INDUSTRY! Last week, Airbus announced a 50.01% equity investment in the C Series program. This strategic partnership ensures the sustainability of the C Series program as well as the maintenance and development of jobs and business opportunities for our companies. I am very confident about the future of our industry. The arrival of a 5th OEM in Greater Montréal is the best proof of the talent of workers in our industry. Airbus’ top executives have called the C Series a highly innovative aircraft, the result of Québec know-how which is recognized all over the world.

A FIRST IN THE QUÉBEC SECURITY AND DEFENCE SECTOR Aéro Montréal deploys the Sécurité Défense Québec (SDQuébec.ca) portal to support aerospace SMEs in their business development. This portal was launched last Monday at the Symposium on the Canadian Defence and Security Market in Boucherville, which was attended by more than 260 participants. It’s a Web tool that lists the industrial capabilities of Québec companies in terms of security and defence. This project stems from the 2016-2026 Québec Aerospace Strategy and responds to a need identified by Québec companies in this growing sector. See our press release to find out more.
