The Edmonton
Association of Technical Societies (EATS) was created in 1997 "to
collectively share information and coordinate and promote technical and
social activities to facilitate networking and learning opportunities."
To date, this has been done by coordinating one fall dinner/trade show
annually. All Edmonton technical societies are members of EATS.
