Get • We attended CANSEC 2026 in Ottawa as part of a coordinated Team Vancouver Island effort.

CANSEC brings together leaders from across Canada’s defence, marine, aerospace, advanced manufacturing, innovation, and security sectors to explore emerging technologies, partnerships, and procurement opportunities.

Our focus is on strengthening relationships, identifying opportunities, and helping position Vancouver Island as a coordinated, investment-ready region. From marine industries and clean technology to advanced manufacturing, Indigenous partnerships, and innovation, Vancouver Island has world-class expertise with the potential to play an even greater role in Canada’s evolving economy.

We’re looking forward to connecting with organizations from across the country, learning where federal priorities are headed, and bringing those insights back to Vancouver Island’s businesses, communities, and partners.
