Traditional economic development focuses on attracting or recruiting business to a local community.  For some communities this may not work.  Learn about economic gardening, an entrepreneurial approach to economic development.

Find out how to grow your local economy by supporting entrepreneurs through the delivery of customized research services, appropriate infrastructure and strategic connections.

Hear about some successful Ontario experience from Collingwood where several organizations and programs are supporting entrepreneurs in their region.
