Our approach

How we work

Our value is knowing the market in detail, and knowing the people in it.

  • We follow the market every day

    We monitor more than 160 Canadian defence and security projects across the Army, Navy, Air Force and joint programs, from early concept to contract. We review federal tenders, notices and innovation calls daily. When a requirement fits a technology we know, we see it early.

  • We talk to the people who shape requirements

    Being in Ottawa means we meet in person. We speak regularly with prime contractors, project teams, innovation programs, industry associations and economic development offices. These conversations tell us what a requirement really needs and which partnerships are credible.

  • We know the technology side

    We meet startups, growing Canadian firms and international manufacturers. We understand what their technology can do, and what it still needs to compete in Canada: a Canadian partner, certification, a test opportunity or capital.

  • We bring the pieces together

    We match a technology with a requirement, a partner, a site or an investor. Then we structure the teaming, Canadian content and government engagement that make the match work.

  • We keep confidences

    Our monitoring and our conversations serve our clients. We do not publish client work, and we do not name clients or partners without permission.

Where you will find us

We attend the major defence and security events in Canada and internationally, from CANSEC and CADSI events to the leading international exhibitions, along with government industry engagement sessions and innovation program events.
