“Flying” innovation in South East New Brunswick





Earlier this month we posted a news article about our AGM and annual social.   You might say Tech South East is “taking off”, and it was in that spirit that we celebrated our second annual summer social at the restaurant at Parlee Beach.  


It was a great evening of music, food and tech-networking and I would like to say a special thank you to our hosts – the Town of Shediac  and IntelisysAviation Systems – for helping make this terrific evening possible. Special words of thanks as well to our Titan and other sponsors for generously donating some really cool door prizes.  


From great golf packages to an evening with the ballet to a photography session ... some of our lucky members and partners collected some excellent prizes.  A very special moment for one happy dad who won the Wii doorprize, something his kids had been wanting for some time ... the photo of these two excited youngsters with the Wii the next morning was, as they say, priceless. 

And in the spirit of “taking off”, we at Tech South East had a little fun with the launch of the Tech South East Air Force, offering an aerial tour for up to three lucky people of the south east New Brunswick region.  The tour will be piloted by our own Sally Ng, Tech South East’s Community Engagement and Outreach Coordinator.  Sally just happens to be an accomplished pilot and a gliding instructor with the Cadets. Launching the Tech South East Air Force seemed a natural progression. Not one to rest on her laurels, Sally quickly sought out an early opportunity to gain added flight experience to her resume so the new “Air Force” can offer top flight service to our region. The evidence?  Check it out below ...   


Yes, the Snowbirds (Click to see more pictures) have joined the Tech South East Air Force!   And why wouldn’t they??

Congrats to Sally on a very cool opportunity and keep an eye on the skies ... you never know where the Tech South East Air Force will show up!
