CADSI President’s Message

On behalf of the Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries, and in collaboration with the Department of National Defence (DND), the Canadian Textile Industry Association, and the CTT Group, I am pleased to welcome you to Soldier Systems Showcase 2013.

participants from industry, and representatives from government innovation programs.

Our thanks to the exhibitors, registrants, speakers, sponsors, and organizing committee for their contributions to this important event. We look forward to your feedback in person or by using the Conference Military operations are inherently dangerous. Soldiers and Trade Show survey provided. working across the full spectrum of operations assume calculated risks each day. Adversary strategies, techniques, tactics and technological capabilities are diverse: those who take to the field against us are adaptable, they seek to exploit vulnerabilities and regrettably, they can be deadly effective – as Canadians and allies witnessed in the decade-plus long mission in Afghanistan.

The human dimension will always be at the heart of the effectiveness of the dismounted soldier – enabled by world-class equipment. The 2011-2025 Soldier System Technology Roadmap (SSTRM) initiative is a key driver for a ground-breaking collaboration between industry and government developing a complex and integrated system of advanced technological systems that incorporates “anything related to the life and work of a ground force combatant including integration with other platforms (e.g. vehicles).” We are pleased to be active proponents of this valuable work to enhance the survivability of the Canadian Army’s future soldier.

I invite you to take advantage of all of the Showcase’s components: a trade show featuring the latest in technologies from suppliers and manufacturers; a conference program providing industry with perspectives on future possible needs of the Canadian Army, many of which are also applicable to allies; and significant B2B/B2G opportunities with government officials, 6 • 2013 Soldier Systems Showcase Guide and Directory
