 The Government of Alberta Economic Development and Trade (EDT) is supporting Alberta's Cleantech Industry Alliance to undertake an industry survey to better help understand the makeup of Alberta's cleantech industry (technology or service-based), and to understand company strengths.
 
With the focus on cleantech federally, provincially, and the transition to a low-carbon economy globally, it's vital to understand who/what we have here in Alberta, and where our strengths are... that's the best way to begin to understand how and where government needs to support the growth of this industry in the province, and position the province (especially our companies) to capitalize on local and global cleantech opportunities.
 
The survey is accessible here, and closes November 21, 2016:
