The Alberta Chambers network is conducting the fourth annual Municipal Red Tape and Business Supports survey. If you're a business operator, this is an opportunity to have your voice heard.

Help your Chamber of Commerce advocate by providing insight on challenges and opportunities businesses experience in your municipality.

More local responses create a stronger voice for business.

The Pathways Alliance - Clear the Air campaign is a concerted effort to bring awareness to the Pathways Alliance and the organization’s multi-phased efforts to steadily reduce emissions and achieve its goal of net zero by 2050.

This campaign acknowledges that the oil sands represent a large share of our country’s emissions. It also recognizes that we must work collaboratively to help Canada meet its climate goals and deliver the world’s preferred barrel of responsibly-produced oil.

Harvard Media has partnered with the Alberta Chamber of Commerce to offer services that can help digitize your business and help you thrive on the Chamber Market platform.

Business Development Canada is hosting a series of virtual and in-person seminars during Small Business Week. Some events include:

StartUp Day: Startup Day is back TODAY! This year’s focus is on empowering Canada’s entrepreneurship ecosystem.

Futurepreneur 2022: Whether you’re interested in selling a product or offering a service, joins us tomorrow to learn more if you consider entrepreneurship as a career path for yourself!

“Small businesses account for more than 98 per cent of all Alberta businesses and employ more than 633,000 Albertans in almost 170,000 businesses. These businesses are not only located in our urban centres; nearly half operate outside of Edmonton and Calgary. More than just stats, these Albertans are our community builders, neighbours and friends."

“Because companies are choosing our province, Albertans looking for work have more diverse jobs to choose from. Our employment over the past three months was up 4,600 from the second quarter, compared with Canada’s decrease of 49,200. Year to date, Alberta leads the country in job growth, a fact we can all be proud of."

“Today marks the beginning of Small Business Week, an opportunity for us to celebrate the creativity, dedication, and innovation of Canadian entrepreneurs, and small and medium-sized business owners.

From your local grocery store you visit every weekend, the coffee shops you pass on your way into work, and the corner store or dépanneur that always seems to be open, small businesses are the heart of our communities and the backbone of our economy. They provide the goods and services we need, and employ over 10 million people across the country."

The next generation of 5G wireless technology is expected to add $40 billion annually to Canada’s economy in the next four years.

“The project we’re announcing will help connect Canadians to the jobs of today and tomorrow. It will bring economic benefits to the National Capital Region and stimulate Canada’s tech ecosystem. This is about building a strong economy and a better future for everyone."
