The event features intimate business networking opportunities, unsurpassed business educational information, and The Industry Showcase, a program designed for those marketing product in Canada.
This eleventh annual PTDA Canadian Conference, scheduled for June 7 to 9, 2012, will be held at the historic Fairmont Empress hotel, which is located in Victoria, B.C.
“The PTDA Canadian Conference delivers unmatched value for members,” said Mitch Bouchard, secretary treasurer of Ottawa-based General Bearing Service Inc. and the newly elected PTDA board of directors president. “There is no other organization that can deliver such thorough networking and educational opportunities in such an efficient package.”
Bouchard said the planning committee is optimistic about 2012, as the latest PTDA Market Forecast indicates the Canadian market will be steadily increasing in strength and growth throughout the year.
