The industry actively encourages youth to pursue careers in aerospace, and it supports students through initiatives such as the Aerospace Student Awards Endowment Fund. Collaboration & Co-operation Webb says Manitoba's aerospace companies collaborate more than they compete, and the ability to work together with other companies, academic institutions, governments, research organizations and economic development agencies is recognized nationally and internationally as one of our key strengths. "We're big enough to have all the things that a global company needs, and we're small enough to have them within a phone call or an arm's reach away." The Path Ahead A developing middle class in countries such as China and India is driving growth in the aerospace industry. More people want to fly and that means more aircraft are needed. But there are also new challenges as global competition heats up. Staying at the top of our game requires continued innovation and investment in research, technology and the workforce. Manitoba's expertise will be key in a national supply chain development program similar to Competitive Edge as well as the new Consortium of Applied Research and Innovation in Aerospace in Canada. And provincial industry leaders have developed the Technology Road Map, creating an action plan for the future to ensure the industry is as dynamic 20 years from now as it is today. It all adds up to great career opportunities in a growing industry.
