Pan-Western E-Business Team
The Alberta E-Future Centre is a member of the Pan-Western E-Business Team
In its effort to strengthen Western Canada's economy through programs that promote
innovation, entrepreneurship and sustainable communities, Western Economic Diversification
has supported the development of four e-business centres across the West, forming an integrated
Pan-Western E-Business Team.
This team is comprised of the e-business centres at the four Canada Business Service Centres
(CBSCs) in Western Canada. Through this Pan-Western Initiative, these e-business information centres
will work more closely together to provide services that will advance the awareness of e-business
practices within Western Canada's business community.
Each e-business information centre helps SMEs adopt Internet technologies within its respective
region. They educate both local entrepreneurs on a limited budget, who may not
otherwise be able to afford e-business training, and rural small business people who
lack access to in-house services.
The members of the Pan-Western E-Business Team include:
Alberta E-Future Centre in Edmonton
eBusiness Connection (eBC) in Vancouver
Saskatchewan E-Future Centre in Saskatoon
Manitoba E-Future Centre in Winnipeg
Technology is the future of entrepreneurship, economic innovation and sustainable communities.
And, the creation of a concerted, yet democratic, Pan-Western E-Business Team positions Western
Canada as a global leader in this future. It increases our collective profile nationally, as well
as regionally, and results in the development of a cost-effective and efficient resource model.
