Le Sommet Chaîne mondiale d'approvisionnement est un événement regroupant l'ensemble des acteurs de l'aérospatiale mondiale et leurs fournisseurs et il a pour objectif de stimuler les échanges sur les meilleures pratiques du moment en matière d'approvisionnement et de faciliter les collaborations entre les acteurs de l'industrie. Il s'agit du plus grand rassemblement de décideurs du secteur aérospatial au Canada dans le domaine de l'approvisionnement où sont présentés les enjeux d'avenir et les opportunités d'affaires potentielles qui s'y rattachent. Après 15 années de forte croissance et de développement, notre secteur opère aujourd'hui un virage numérique où l'innovation, l'environnement et les startups jouent un rôle clé pour dégager de nouvelles opportunités de croissance et améliorer l'efficacité. De plus, il doit répondre aux nouveaux enjeux reliés à la cyber-sécurité et à la réduction de son empreinte carbone. Les acteurs de la chaîne d'approvisionnement seront appelés à renouveler leurs façons de faire pour offrir à leurs clients un produit plus vert et plus intelligent afin de demeurer compétitifs.

Les collaborations internationales seront à l'honneur et les discussions cibleront l'exploration de nouvelles perspectives pour l'avenir. Des tables rondes réunissant les grands décideurs du Canada et de l'Europe permettront notamment de discuter des défis communs et les opportunités à l'échelle mondiale. En octobre, à l'occasion d'une journée complète, les participants se retrouveront pour un événement 100% virtuel (les billets virtuels pourraient être convertis en billets présentiels moyennant une charge additionnelle si les consignes publiques nous le permettent) qui précédera Aéromart Montréal, l'une des plus grandes conventions d'affaires organisées dans le secteur aérospatial. Les participants auront alors l'occasion d'échanger sur les solutions adaptées pour créer une chaîne d'approvisionnement durable et se réinventer dans une ère post-COVID. Finalement, la série d'événements 2021 visera aussi particulièrement la résolution des enjeux liés à la relève et la main-d'œuvre. Les métiers numériques seront à l'honneur et nous favoriserons l'attractivité du secteur en offrant une expérience immersive à l'aide de visites virtuelles d'usines. Objectifs de l'événement : Présenter les principales avancées des chaînes d'approvisionnement mondiales en aérospatiale ; Stimuler la croissance du secteur aérospatiale à Montréal gr'ce au partage des enjeux stratégiques et des meilleures pratiques et tactiques reliées à la gestion de la chaîne d'approvisionnement aérospatiale ; Favoriser l'attractivité du secteur aérospatial pour la relève et main-d'œuvre en offrant une expérience immersive aux participants ; Multiplier des occasions d'affaires en matière d'approvisionnement aérospatial ; Renforcer les liens entre les leaders de l'aérospatiale mondiale et l'ensemble de l'industrie aérospatiale de Montréal ; Mobiliser les principaux acteurs du milieu autour de stratégies communes afin de rendre la chaîne d'approvisionnement plus durable ; Favoriser la durabilité de la chaîne d'approvisionnement aérospatiale avec une emphase sur la résilience et la compétitivité locale ; Encourager les partenariats entre les différentes organisations.
