Saab strengthens ties to Quebec and 加拿大 through CRIAQ partnership
Saab and the Consortium for Research and 创新 in Aerospace in Quebec (CRIAQ) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
This collaborative relationship aims to leverage Quebec's R&D ecosystem’s strengths to encourage the development of collaborative research projects between Saab and Canadian industry, as well as universities and research organizations.
This collaboration has been formed to support Saab’s future Industrial and Technological Benefit (ITB) commitments, if the Gripen fighter is selected for 加拿大’s Future Fighter Capability Project (FFCP).
“The quality and breadth of 航空space research and innovation in 加拿大 is globally recognised, with the Quebec region home to many excellent companies and institutions. Therefore, it was natural to reach this agreement with an important organisation like CRIAQ. We look forward to working together to benefit research and the fostering of talent in Quebec,乔纳斯·海姆说, Senior Vice President and Saab’s Head of business area Aeronautics.
“During such unsure times within the industry, this partnership demonstrates that the 航空space industry in Quebec and 加拿大 remains attractive and world class. We are very pleased with this signing as we continue to develop our 航空space industry, adding a new global player to our ecosystem. I am convinced that CRIAQ's academic, 工业及中小企业团体, and the Quebec economy as well, will clearly benefit from this international collaboration,阿兰·奥贝旦说, CRIAQ首席执行官.
The ITB Policy is the government's main tool for leveraging procurement to create jobs and economic growth in 加拿大. Saab has submitted an offer of 88 Gripen E fighters for the Canadian FFCP, and a core element of the Gripen industrial offering includes CAE in Montreal, Quebec who will supply training and mission systems solutions.
The MoU was signed in April 2020.
