DEFSEC Atlantic 2017 has been characterized by en-
ergy. The enthusiasm we have felt from the close of
2016 to now has been continuous as we sold out ear-
lier than ever. This is after expanding the Exhibiting
floor space by 10 per cent. The success of the B2B
program shows that business is being done and op-
portunities are being created in an atmosphere that is
appreciated by all.
Your feedback is our best compass to use in shaping
the future. We will be sending a survey with pointed
questions that demand honest answers. We want to
deliver the best Show possible for the industry and are
keen to include you in the planning process. Whether
you are a Non-Exhibiting Delegate who has visited for
the first time, or a long-standing major partner, we
want your input. Moreover, you do not have to wait
to make your voice heard. Send any comments to Co-
lin Stephenson at colin@defsecatlantic.ca and please
respond to the survey when it comes to you soon.
The team has proven over the years that we can and
will adapt to change. Often it has been forced upon us,
but we would like to plan the change on our terms if
you see it as necessary. Whether it is a change in tim-
ing, location, format or layout – we want to hear from
you and look forward to continuous improvement as
we grow with the Aerospace and Defence community.
We do not plan to turn the world upside down too
quickly – next year we will be returning to Cunard
Centre in the same week next September.
