Harnessing a powerful combination of lifestyles, labour force and location, scientific and business capability, and key technology support services, Kingston is a city justifiably serious about its mantle as a home to world-class products for global markets.
Kingston's economy is a blend of old and new - strong, historic companies that are familiar to all Canadians and impressive new start-ups. Together, they contribute to a city buzzing with ideas and innovation, and offer a distinctive lifestyle for its residents.
In facing competitors from around the world, we continue to develop those areas where our expertise and resources make us unique and globally competitive - in sectors such as biotech/health sciences; tourism and culture; advanced materials; alternative energy and environmental technology. In Kingston, we recognize that innovation is the path to tomorrow, and that our community's global success is linked to our capacity to share knowledge and capitalize on our geographic, research, cultural, institutional and business strengths.
A city for people, a landscape for ideas.
