Join CADSI and play an active role in shaping the policies, programs, and priorities that define Canada’s defence and security landscape.
CADSI members gain access to exclusive, curated engagement opportunities with government and industry partners, from roundtables and briefings to user testing sessions and consultations.
While many of these sessions are open to all Canadians, CADSI filters and prioritizes them, helping members focus their time on the most strategic and high-value opportunities.
Members may also be invited to participate in formal dialogue mechanisms between government and industry. While participation is determined by the federal government, CADSI regularly puts forward member representatives to ensure a balanced, informed, and united industry voice.
Members interested in participating can contact CADSI’s Advocacy Team to express interest in upcoming opportunities.
Advise on defence policy issues impacting the industry, from procurement reform and regulatory modernization to industrial policy and investment frameworks.
Offer feedback on CADSI’s cyber-defence initiatives and research, and help strengthen collaboration between the Canadian government, military, and private sector.
Be part of a growing network dedicated to advancing and celebrating women in Canada’s defence and security community through mentorship, recognition, and leadership opportunities.
Represent the voice of small and medium-sized enterprises, which make up over 85% of Canada’s defence industrial base, and guide CADSI’s advocacy on SMB priorities.
