Get on board the new Canadian space economy. What is happening? What are the commercial, research and career opportunities? What are the pathways to participate?

This session, the first of an intended series, will provide participants with an overview of the developments and opportunities in Canada from the perspective of government, Industry Association Space Canada, innovation at the University of Toronto’s Space Flight Laboratory, and industry leader, MDA, who will discuss the latest about their projects, including the CANADARM3. Learn how firms and professionals, in a wide range of specialties, can become part of the Canadian space industry story.

Future sessions will introduce participants to the initiatives of other Canadian sector leaders and the different opportunities this industry presents, as well as the expanding Canadian government engagement in promoting the Canadian space sector and its role in helping us address our earthly challenges, including climate change, and cyber security.
