Alberta's Industry Sectors

Alberta is often thought of as Canada's energy province. While it is true that the energy sector - oil, gas, and oil sands - has been a main driver of Alberta's economy, the province actually possesses a vibrant and diverse set of industry sectors that are continually growing and innovating.

Did you know that Alberta is the home of over 150 aerospace and aviation companies, employing over 6000 Albertans, or that Alberta is the location of Canada's National Institute of Nanotechnology? Alberta's industry sectors reflect the diversity, ingenuity, and creativity of the Albertan character and offer endless opportunity for business growth and investment.
