Growing and diversifying our markets

In the face of a shifting global economy, Alberta’s government is committed to connecting Alberta businesses with partners and buyers across Canada and abroad to expand markets for Alberta-made products and services, attract job-creating investment to our industries and pursue mutually beneficial ties that promote shared economic prosperity for generations to come.

Through programs and resources, trade missions, networking, advocacy and relationship building, Alberta’s government supports businesses and industry to build trade relationships in strategic domestic and international markets. Alberta's economy spans energy, agriculture, technology and innovation, health and life sciences, oil and gas, clean technologies, aviation, defence and more.

All of this is done with the goal of strengthening our economy and making it more resilient to external shocks now and into the future.
