(firmenpresse) - HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/06/11 -- Today, following an announcement by The Boeing Company concerning its research and development investment with Dalhousie University, the Honourable Christian Paradis, Minister of Industry, issued the following statement:

"The key to success in this global industry is the pursuit of innovative new ways to do business, and the catalyst to this is a steady investment in research and development. Today's announcement is a prime example of research and industry working together.

"I am thrilled to see economic benefits coming to the Atlantic region as a result of this investment. The relationship between Boeing and Dalhousie University is an excellent example of the Industrial and Regional Benefits (IRB) Policy at its finest-generating collaboration in research and development that will benefit Canada's aerospace industry as a whole, while strengthening Canada's competitiveness in the global market.

"The investment announced today is just a snapshot of the types of activities that have been generated through the IRB Policy. Canada is on track to benefit from more than $20 billion in related investments with Canadian industry and research institutions, and this number will continue to grow."
