The Economic Growth Strategy Update for 2013-2015 is the result of consultation with key stakeholders throughout the Niagara region and identifies four target sectors (manufacturing, including green technologies, agri-business, tourism, and transportation and logistics) and supporting actions that will guide economic development activities over the next 24 months.
These actions, focused on encouraging job growth, propose a balanced approach between getting the conditions right to facilitate business growth, helping our existing businesses succeed, and attracting new investment, in order to achieve maximum results.
Niagara Economic Development worked with municipal, business, institutional and community leaders and Regional Council to identify strategic priorities that are most relevant in the current economic climate and will allow Niagara to make significant progress in achieving our vision for success. The resulting summary document is a blueprint for moving forward.
