Camila Bellon never planned on becoming a CEO.

But she always knew she wanted to work in manufacturing — specifically, on the factory floor.

At WTC Talks last Wednesday, Camila shared the unexpected turns that took her from Brazil to Winnipeg, from engineering to brewing, and eventually to leading Eascan Automation Inc., a Winnipeg-based industrial automation and robotics company.

She spoke about navigating tariffs and changing global markets, the importance of building locally, and the opportunity to take Manitoba-made technology to the world.

Thank you, Camila, for sharing your story! And a big thank you to Manitoba Chambers of Commerce, Winnipeg Economic Development and Tourism, and BDC for supporting this WTC Talks!

Reconciliation is not a single act, but an ongoing journey.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation honours the children who never returned home, the survivors of residential schools, and the communities forever impacted.

It’s a time to reflect on Canada’s history and commit to actions that support healing and understanding.

At World Trade Centre Winnipeg, located on Treaty 1 Territory and the homeland of the Red River Métis, we are committed to creating space for Indigenous voices, working with Indigenous partners, and supporting Indigenous-owned businesses in our community today and every day.

We invite you to honour this day by listening, learning, and taking action that supports truth and reconciliation — in your workplace, your community, and beyond.

────────────

La réconciliation n’est pas un acte ponctuel, mais un parcours continu.

La Journée nationale de la vérité et de la réconciliation rend hommage aux enfants qui ne sont jamais rentrés chez eux, aux survivants des pensionnats indiens et aux communautés marquées à jamais.

C’est l’occasion de réfléchir à l’histoire du Canada et de s’engager à mener des actions qui favorisent la guérison et la compréhension.

Au World Trade Centre Winnipeg, situé sur le territoire du Traité n° 1 et dans la terre ancestrale des Métis de la rivière Rouge, nous nous engageons à donner la parole aux Autochtones, à collaborer avec des partenaires autochtones et à soutenir les entreprises autochtones de notre communauté, aujourd’hui et chaque jour.

Nous vous invitons à honorer cette journée en écoutant, en apprenant et en agissant en faveur de la vérité et de la réconciliation — sur votre lieu de travail, au sein de votre communauté et au-delà.
