Are you attending the EDCO Conference and Showcase February 4th -6th, 2025? Why not join us at our Informative Pre-Conference Seminar from The University of Waterloo. This pre-conference seminar is designed to equip economic developers with the skills and knowledge necessary to integrate planning principles and collaborate with planners. Economic developers and planners both strive to enhance community vitality, though often through distinct approaches. While developers focus on reducing business and development barriers, planners concentrate on guiding where and how development unfolds. New Topics Covered: - What economic developers need to know about planning policy and practice in Ontario - Trends in planning that economic developers should understand - How economic developers and planners can work together - A foot in each world: economic developers who are also planners reflect on the two roles Registration is required, spaces limited.
