Take a look at what's in store for 2017 with the International Economic Development Council.
Greetings Fellow Canadian Economic Developers!
"The new year is upon us and 2017 allows IEDC to celebrate its first Annual Conference in Canada along with Canada's 150th birthday. I could not be more pleased that Toronto will host the event. Economic development professionals across North America and many other nations are already preparing to take full advantage of this terrific opportunity in one of Canada's largest cities. I encourage you to do so as well.
The system and practice of economic development is ever changing and is one of great complexity. It is now time to move economic development discussions, collaboration and partnerships from the local, regional and national level to the international level. The event's program will allow us to hone in on what's critical." Mike Williams, General Manager, Economic Development & Culture, City of Toronto, Ontario, Canada about IEDC's 2017 Annual Conference.

"Quelle chance s'offre à nous de prendre part au congrès annuel 2017 d'IEDC à Toronto et de développer un nouveau réseau de contacts avec des développeurs économiques des quatre coins du Globe. Il s'agit de la première fois dans l'histoire d'IEDC que le congrès annuel a lieu à l'extérieur des États-Unis, et c'est au Canada. Il s'agit d'une excellente occasion de faire valoir le savoir-faire des professionnels en développement économique du Québec et du Canada français au reste du monde, tout en prenant avantage des attraits et de la vitalité de la Ville Reine."
