MRO Americas is the world’s largest gathering of the aviation maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) community.
This year, the highly anticipated event in Orlando took place from April 21 to 23 and marked its 30th anniversary. This large-scale trade show, organized by Aviation Week Network, features conferences, exhibitions, and networking opportunities specifically designed for the civil and military aviation sectors. The Government of Quebec in Miami was present, alongside Quebec companies specializing in the aerospace sector.
Strategic Alliance
On LinkedIn, the Government of Quebec in Miami stated: “As a major aviation and aerospace hub, Orlando benefits from a strong MRO ecosystem, advanced training and simulation capabilities, and close ties to Florida’s Space Coast. This makes it a natural partner for Québec, whose highly specialized aerospace sector — centered in Montréal — plays a critical role in global supply chains.”
The government announced that it was proud to showcase three Quebec companies at its booth, providing an excellent platform to highlight the expertise and innovation of Quebec’s aerospace companies. Aeromotion Canada was on site, alongside AV&R and Polycontrols Technologies.
