Modest Tree

🚢 MAJOR MILESTONE 🚢 Proud to announce that Modest Tree has been awarded a $32M contract by Fleetway Inc. to deliver immersive, design-derived training systems for the Royal Canadian Navy's River-class Destroyers. Sailors will train on ship systems well before commissioning, accelerating readiness, reducing introduction-to-service risk, and strengthening Canada’s sovereign naval capability. This work strengthens Canada's defence industrial base while creating high-value tech jobs right here in Nova Scotia. “As Canada builds its future fleet, we are building the training advantage alongside it,” said Emily Smits CPA,CMA, PMP, CEO of Modest Tree. “We are transforming engineering design into operational readiness while creating high-value technology jobs here in Nova Scotia.” #DefenceTech #NavalTraining #CanadianDefence #Innovation loom.ly/H_4LJuI
