CED Strategic Plan

With the Strategic Plan 2021, CED is focusing on innovation, clean growth, economic diversity and a more inclusive economy

For a more innovative, cleaner and inclusive Quebec economy

Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions (CED) Strategic Plan 2021 sets out CED’s key directions until 2021. Working collaboratively with all stakeholders concerned by economic development issues, CED plans to continue its mission by focusing on innovation, clean growth, economic diversity and the development of a more inclusive economy.

This Plan was developed following a consultation process: In 2016, CED launched the Dialogue on the economic development of Quebec regions, consulting with around 1,000 citizens and economic stakeholders. The ideas collected through this Dialogue informed the development of CED’s strategic directions that guides its actions for the coming year.


Regional intervention strategies

The Plan will be implemented through the Regional intervention strategies developed by CED’s business offices in Quebec’s regions. By considering the needs of its clientele and the unique socio-economic, demographic and geographic features of its region, each business office provides a strategic regional perspective in support of CED’s priorities. 
 

Federal Strategy on Innovation and Growth for the Quebec Regions

The Federal Strategy on Innovation and Growth for the Quebec Regions is a collaborative economic development approach within the Government of Canada. Launched in 2018, it aims to support innovation and entrepreneurial drive through concrete actions aligned with shared priorities for action.

CED is leading the development of this Federal Strategy in Quebec. We are working closely with the other federal stakeholders to identify initiatives and actions that will contribute to the Strategy’s objectives as they develop or materialize.
