AEROSPACE AND DEFENCE
MicroPilot, a Manitoba-based drone- technology company, is also garnering worldwide attention. “Part of my existence (as executive champion of the MCDA) is to make sure that we have the right steering committee that includes all of the key executive players, so that's what we're doing,” Soubry says. One of the things that’s been exciting while moving forward is how aligned everyone’s interests are, Soubry says, and how willing they are to work together. “Collaboration is our superpower,” Stuart says. “Our organizations across the spectrum — industry, govern- ment, academia, Indigenous partners, economic development organizations and defence stakeholders — are all working together. No single organiza- tion can grow a defence ecosystem alone. Our strength is in our willing- ness to collaborate.” ■
