Our Mission

Vimy Forge is a public–private partnership that is closing the gap between Canadian innovation and defence procurement. We equip Canadian startups and SMEs with the expertise and connections they need to succeed in the defence sector.

Based in Fredericton, Built for National Impact

Anchored in Fredericton, NB, but built for national impact, Vimy Forge brings together SMEs, academia, industry partners, and government to create the conditions where Canadian solutions can scale and succeed.

With support already in place from partners across the country, the Forge is positioned as a new anchor for Canadian innovation in the defence sector.
