Bombardier pouring millions into creation of GTA aerospace hub
TORONTO — Bombardier says it will be pouring millions of dollars into various projects aimed at creating an aerospace hub in the Greater Toronto Area.
The aerospace giant says the funding strengthens its partnership with a local consortium whose primary goal is getting the hub established.
The Downsview Aerospace Innovation and Research Consortium will set up a centre where academic and industry leaders can collaborate.
Bombardier says it will dedicate $1.5 million a year for the next five years toward funding research at that centre.
