Defense-Curious? Join Scott Dewis at VIATEC Canada is entering a historic phase of investment in defense, aerospace, and shipbuilding. With the NORAD modernization underway, defense spending rising from 1.2% to 5% of GDP, and hundreds of billions of dollars about to flow into new programs, the opportunities for Canadian innovators have never been greater. 

But here’s the challenge: many tech companies with world-class, dual-use solutions have no idea how to break in. The rules, the contracts, the ITB obligations — it all feels out of reach. 

That’s where Scott Dewis, Principal of Dewis Ventures, comes in. For the past four years, he’s been helping Canadian SMEs crack the code on defense — positioning their technologies, winning grants, R&D investments, contracts, and getting in front of decision-makers who matter. 

If you’ve ever been “defense-curious” — wondering if your technology could fit, but not sure how to start — this is your introduction to one of the fastest-growing markets in Canada.
