Annual
Report
Our city has flown under the radar for many years,
but we're starting to see a change in how the world
is taking notice of our city. People and companies
are realizing that we are recognizing our strengths.
We collaborate better than anyone and we are an
affordable and attractive location for doing business,
with a high quality of life filled with opportunity.
At Economic Development Winnipeg, we refer to these strengths as
the 'Winnipeg Advantage'. This value proposition demonstrates the
very best our city can offer, from business opportunity to culture to a
convenient geographic location and world-class transportation options.
There are some key factors to the Winnipeg Advantage that has more
people and companies from across the globe paying attention to us. A
lot of it has to do with the way we manage our economic development
strategy. Winnipeggers are collaborators – we work together to accomplish
bigger things than we could on our own. This means we are putting our
best foot forward whenever we talk about our city, and leads to greater
success because we're all kicking in the same direction.
