Blanchet said. “We often hear, ‘You were
able to put on paper my pros and cons
in a very independent and objective way,
which nobody did before.’”
With a focus on Quebec’s aerospace,
transportation, energy, natural resource,
and defense and security sectors, STIQ
works to provide its members with high-
quality services and programs designed to
promote continuous improvement in sup-
ply chain development. The association
hosts several events, including the Buyer/
Supplier Day, a STIQ awards gala, a net-
working golf tournament, a manufacturing
conference and a diverse range of industry
training sessions. Members can take ad-
vantage of morning conferences or lunch &
learn sessions, half or full-day seminars, or
participate in exclusive onsite plant visits.
As Quebec’s largest annual manufactur-
ing industry gathering, the Buyer/Supplier
Day is one of STIQ’s most popular events
and sells out each year, Blanchet said.
STIQ also publishes a weekly newsletter
that keeps members updated on industry
news, from new members and partners to
worldwide manufacturing events.
