    WATERLOO EDC 2016 ANNUAL REPORT MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Waterloo Region's economic development corporation, branded as "Waterloo EDC", made great strides in 2016. We now have a fully staffed organization — with a very committed and capable team of marketers, business development experts and support personnel. This team works collaboratively with economic development staff within our municipalities to achieve the key goals outlined in the economic strategy document developed in 2014- 2015. Together with other business and development organizations, we have built up the Region’s profile... building on the core value proposition that Waterloo Region is a great place to locate and grow a business. Our region has great assets. We have people-related strengths such as a talented and diverse workforce, an entrepreneurial attitude, as well as a culture of innovation. We have world leading research and educational institutions, vibrant and livable/affordable communities and improving infrastructure (LRT, GO Train service, etc.). We truly are "Inventing the Future" and the team at Waterloo EDC is pleased to play a key role. Of course, we need to continue to get exposure in key target markets. We are therefore building the region's profile with focused marketing campaigns. Over the past year, Waterloo EDC has hosted numerous in- and out-bound trade and development related missions, which have raised the profile of our community on an international scale. We are building a more complete web portal to support those wanting to learn about the region. We are answering the question...Why Waterloo? We are also building a solid funnel of growth opportunities — a funnel which tracks both foreign direct investments such as ETAS's acquisition of TrustPoint Innovation Technologies Ltd.
