Calgary Economic Development: connecting you to business
Interested in maximizing the business value of your visit to the WorldSkills Ccompetition in Calgary? The city’s lead economic development agency is available to assist incoming business and government delegations with connections to businesses operating in this dynamic and innovative city.
Whether you are interested in a plant tour, introductions to prospective partners and trade opportunities or local market information, Calgary Economic Development’s dedicated team of business development managers can assist.
We focus on supporting and growing key sectors of the city’s economy including: Energy, Manufacturing, Transportation & Logistics, Film & Creative Industries, Financial Services, Real Estate and Sustainable & Renewable Energy. We’re also actively developing a Global Business Centre (slated for November opening) which will serve as a “landing pad” for visiting businesses and incoming delegations.
Calgary Economic Development is proud to welcome WorldSkills Calgary 2009 and all its delegates to the city and invite you to contact us in advance so that we may put our skills to the test by facilitating connections on your behalf.
