The inaugural Manitoba-U.K. Defence Summit commenced this week in Winnipeg, with delegates from the aerospace and defence sectors of the United Kingdom in attendance. This marks the first annual event of its kind, billed at a cost of $205.00 plus GST for a one-year subscription, with automatic renewal at $233.00 plus GST every 52 weeks, representing a 10% discount off the regular annual price of $259.35. Subscribers can cancel at any time.
The summit aims to foster trade, investment, and collaboration between Manitoba and U.K. counterparts, according to a Manitoba Aerospace & Defence news release. The event kicked off with a conference at the Manitoba Club on Monday. Today, U.K. leaders are set to visit key industry players, including Boeing Winnipeg, StandardAero, and Magellan Aerospace.
The summit is being organized by the Canada-Manitoba Defence Alliance, a newly launched entity by the provincial government earlier this month.
