Esprit de Corps recently had the opportunity to attended the Best Defence Conference and trade show in London Ontario. Held November 5-6 2018, it is not as big as CANSEC or DEFSEC but it is well-attended by senior military and defence officials. Organizer Heather Pilot, president of Pilot Hill Ltd. and an Esprit de Corps Women in Defence honoree in 2018, is the driving force behind the growing show. Besides big players like General Dynamics Land Systems, Southwestern Ontario is home to numerous firms specializing in military applications of advanced composites and world-class technologies.
