Canadian Advanced Technology Alliance (CATAAlliance) was originally created in 1978 to support development of fledgling Canadian owned small high tech companies. Thanks to CATA and many others over the next forty years, we created across Canada some of the world’s most impressive clusters of high tech start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Now, we must continue our support for our ongoing fountain of new firms while creating a new national ecosystem to support the growth of medium and large advanced technology firms. The benefit? Stability, global competitiveness, domestic opportunities and prosperity!
CATA CEO Suzanne Grant shares her thoughts in this recent piece, “Canada’s National Economic Strategy Requires Input from All Voices” (via TheFutureEconomy.ca).
