We will have the honour of welcoming M. François Blais, Minister of Employment and Social Solidarity and Minister responsible for the Capitale-Nationale region.

The fifth cohort will consist of 20 suppliers chosen following the call for applications currently underway and ending on January 20, 2017. To help you better understand what’s involved as part of the MACH Initiative and to guide you in seeking a sponsor, Aéro Montréal invites representatives of manufacturing companies in Québec’s aerospace sector who wish to join the cohort, or act as a sponsor, to one of the following two information sessions: Thursday, December 8 or Wednesday, December 14. All registration details can be found here. Other information of interest: we are publishing a new edition of our Defence Directory. This is a one-of-a-kind directory that highlights your products and services related to aerospace programs in the military and national security sectors. We therefore encourage companies in the defence sector to update their profile. For the procedure, click here. Also, you can purchase advertising space in this reference tool to maximize your company’s visibility (contact Sylvain Lefrançois – sylvain.lefrancois@aeromontreal.ca 514 987-9394). AN HISTORIC MOMENT – On Monday, Bombardier celebrated the delivery of its first CS300 aircraft to airBaltic, the national airline of Latvia. We attended this major event, which will eventually generate benefits for Québec’s aerospace supply chain! See the press release.
