In a letter sent to Mayor Sutcliffe and the members of Ottawa's City Council, the Ottawa Board of Trade, Ottawa Tourism and Invest Ottawa expressed strong support for Lansdowne 2.0. As representatives of the Ottawa business, tourism and tech sectors, and as economic partners in the region and across the country, we understand the impact that a revitalized Lansdowne will have on our community, today and for the next generation.
A revitalized Lansdowne expands opportunities that support downtown transformation and benefit every Ottawa neighbourhood, creating a more resilient and vibrant cityscape. A dynamic city attracts professionals, entrepreneurs, and creatives. Cities all over the world competing for business investment and top talent are racing to showcase their commitment to enhancing lifestyle, creating cultural and recreational spaces, and driving innovation. We are laying the groundwork for Canada's Capital to be a diverse and economically robust place to live, work and play for decades to come.

Women, Wit & Wisdom is designed to hear from Ottawa’s women leaders of all backgrounds, sectors, and stages of life, as we have a real and raw conversation on the challenges women face in leadership roles.
Our December event will curate a conversation around the theme of Digging Deep. The last three years have seen a disproportionate impact on women and has highlighted to different challenges that women face as it relates to their work, family situation, and background. As the world gets smaller and we became more aware how global trends impact our everyday lives, it is important to check in with women who understand what it means to dig deep and cultivate the desire to make a difference - to manifest the kind of life that women deserve.
