The Region of Durham's Economic Development and Tourism division is responsible for supporting the growth of our Regional economy through creating and retaining jobs. To do this, Invest Durham promotes the region as a great place to do business, provides business services to attract new investment, enables a vibrant tourism industry, and provides agricultural and rural economic development programming in the northern townships.
The 2023 Economic Development and Tourism Annual Report captures a high-level summary of the activities undertaken by Economic Development and Tourism to inform the local community on important economic development initiatives—including an economic snapshot, entrepreneurship and innovation initiatives, sector developments, awards and recognized achievements, and partnerships.
The annual report was created to raise awareness of the activities of economic development and the importance of its role in our community.
