Organizations, festivals and groups like, WREDC, Communitech, Kwartzlab, Maker Expo, Night\Shift, Summer Lights, CAFKA, True North and so many more, make the Waterloo Region a rich and vibrant place to live. Being open to collaboration, and helping others is such an important part of why our community is thriving.
More than $2.3 billion was invested in Canadian startups over 522 deals in 2014, which was the highest amount invested since 2002, according to data from Thompson Reuters.
Conestoga College's degree programming in the areas of engineering and information technology is training talent for the IoT boom.
The Waterloo Region also had the ability to meet the demand of 8,400 new tech jobs from 2011 to 2016.
