Canadian metalworking magazine has always had great success with its metalworking Manufacturing and Production (MMP) Expo. And we are expecting that this year will be no different. After positive feedback, the MMP Expo will return to Vancouver for the third time on May 5. After much consideration, the MMP Expo will be heading to Winnipeg in order to show continued support to the Western Canadian market.

On April 7, we will be hosting a one-day tabletop show at the Victoria Inn Hotel & Convention Centre in Winnipeg. The show will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m and attendees will have access to the latest in machine tools, cutting tools, fabricating and welding technologies, production software, and metrology. And it’s completely free!

Don’t miss out on the chance to hear a keynote address from leading aerospace professional, Don Boitson.

“We are extremely excited to have Don Boitson on board as our keynote speaker this year.” Explains Rob Swan, Associate Publisher of Canadian metalworking magazine. “This is the first year we will be bringing our expo to Winnipeg, and with a strong focus on Aerospace, Don will provide a very relevant and engaging presentation on the industry in Manitoba. We look forward to bringing our event to Winnipeg on April 7th.”
