Spartan Controls

That’s a wrap on the Experience Industrial Innovation Conference & Expo!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to be with us over the past two days. It was a great opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and explore what innovation looks like across our industry, together.

A special thank you to Chris Hadfield, our Day 1 keynote speaker, for an unforgettable talk on innovation and leadership. Drawing on his 165 days, 16 hours, and 18 minutes in space, Chris shared powerful stories, along with a simple but lasting reminder: meaning isn’t found in extraordinary moments alone, it’s built into the choices we make every day.

It was especially meaningful to hear Chris speak about the role of Emerson's Rosemount technologies in space exploration used during the 1969 Apollo moon landing. A proud moment for Spartan Controls, seeing how our technology contributes to a journey that extends from Earth to space.

Thank you again to our customers, partners, sponsors, speakers, and Spartans for making this event such a success, for all of us.

We’re in full swing at the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre for our Experience Industrial Innovation Conference & Expo!

This morning’s sessions brought together speakers from government and industry, sharing valuable perspectives on modern plant design and what it means for the future of operations.

This summer, more than 40 students are joining teams across our Spartan locations. From day one, they’re gaining hands‑on experience, asking thoughtful questions, and learning how work gets done in a supportive, collaborative environment. We can’t wait to see this next generation grow, find their strengths, and carry what they’re learning into the work ahead.

Thank you to the Spartans who are investing their time, sharing their knowledge, and helping create meaningful learning experiences. Your mentorship supports today’s work while helping develop tomorrow’s talent.

Our Green Team in Calgary partnered with the City of Calgary to take part in the Branching Out program, planting 16 trees around our Calgary office. This initiative is one way to support efforts to grow the city’s urban tree canopy and strengthen community well-being, while contributing to a greener future. Currently, the canopy covers about 9.62% of the city, with a goal of reaching 16% as part of a broader effort to plant nearly one million trees by 2029.

Leadership. Innovation. The future of industry.
