ABOUT THE EAST CENTRAL REGIONAL INNOVATION NETWORK

The Regional Innovation Networks (RINs) are comprised of eight (8) collaborative networks across Alberta.  The goal of a RIN is to create a community-based network of programs and services to accelerate the growth of technology and knowledge-based businesses.  The RINS are funded by the Government of Alberta and administered by Alberta Innovates.

The East Central Alberta Regional Innovation Network envisions a vibrant, innovative, and diverse business environment in the region that creates jobs, increases revenues, and grows opportunities for local businesses to export to the global market. We are passionate about helping small businesses innovate, grow, diversify the economy and help build a strong entrepreneurial culture in Alberta.
