Exporting

There are still many untapped opportunities beyond current levels of export in products and services from the energy industry.

While the strength and sophistication of Southern Alberta’s energy sector and related sub-sectors have long been the source of the technology and intellectual capital exported globally, Calgary is a world leader in all forms of energy – alternative, traditional and green power – as well as the business functions that support it.

The energy sector of Southern Alberta has been a catalyst for growth in many other areas, such as manufacturing, technology and financial services. New possibilities for local goods, services and technologies are expanding in foreign markets.

A worldwide demand for commodities and innovative products and services has raised the outlook for all Alberta sectors, including energy, manufacturing, financial services, transportation and logistics, niche information and communications technologies, and environmental sciences.
