Calling all aerospace engineers and innovators! Join us for an information session on the Aerospace Accelerator Program (AAP), presented in partnership with funders Calgary Economic Development’s Opportunity Calgary Investment Fund and Prairies Economic Development Canada, and inaugural industry partners including WestJet, the Calgary Airport Authority, and Chapter AI Ventures.
Alberta plays a pivotal role in advancing Canadian aerospace, and we’re committed to supporting your journey to scale and grow. Alberta boasts proximity to key markets in the USA and Asia, low population density, and a rich talent pool. Access to resources from the University of Calgary, along with support from an international airport backed by partners like WestJet and the Calgary Airport Authority, makes Alberta a prime destination for aerospace innovation.
