Co-hosted by the Ministry of Tourism, Trade and Investment and Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME), the BC Export Awards recognise the valuable role exporters, such as Avigilon, play in the BC Economy.

"The nominees and winners this year have all demonstrated the leadership and innovation that drives BC's export industry.
