The Concordia Institute of Aerospace Design and Innovation (CIADI) and the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science's Security Research Centre are delighted to invite you to the first ever Aerospace meets Cybersecurity Forum and Cocktail event, held at Concordia University in downtown Montreal.

This unique conference couldn’t happen at a more critical time. While the aerospace industry in Montreal is undergoing transformative changes, every sector of the economy needs to take a hard look at their cybersecurity capabilities.

In this context, this conference will feature:

  • an overview of the future of cybersecurity applicable to the aerospace sector
  • identify research and training needs for the next generation of aerospace workers.
