Who we are
Economic Development Winnipeg Inc. (EDW) is the city's lead economic development
agency and champion for local growth. We use expert analysis to highlight the
Winnipeg Advantage and prove why we are the best place to live, work and visit.
Governed by a private-sector board and driven by the needs of the business
community, EDW grows the local economy by attracting business, investment, events
and people to our city.
Our YES! Winnipeg Business Development team promotes the city as the ideal location
for new business, expansion, investment and top talent, making it easy to grow and
invest in Winnipeg through a suite of specialized services, market intelligence and
business connections.
Our Tourism Winnipeg team is the city's official destination marketing organization and
leads all efforts to attract visitors, special events, sports, meetings and conventions to
Winnipeg and provide residents and visitors the best possible experience.
Economic Development Winnipeg acknowledges that we are located on Treaty 1
territory, the original lands of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene
peoples, and on the homeland of the Métis nation.
