Organised by MAA and the US Department of Commerce
U.S. Congressman Joe Courtney, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, is leading a delegation of ten Connecticut aerospace & defence sector companies to the UK.
With the importance of Pratt & Whitney and Hamilton Sunstrand and their supply chains, Connecticut is a similar aerospace cluster to the Midlands in many ways.
The MAA and the US Department of Commerce are organising this free event for companies from the Midlands and Connecticut to meet each other, introduce their capabilities, and seek mutual business opportunities.
There will also be a fascinating opportunity to hear directly from Congressman Courtney about future trends in US defence policy.
We are very pleased that Bob Ainsworth MP (Coventry North East) will also speak to the meeting on defence policy matters. Until May 2010 Bob Ainsworth served as the UK Secretary of State for Defence and currently serves on the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Select Committee.
This is an event for MAA member companies and places are strictly limited, so book now! We may have to limit participants to one-per-MAA-member.
