The new Program was created using the Town’s economic development goals, an assessment of the Town’s business sectors, Federal and Provincial governments’ strategies and research from the Greater Toronto Marketing Alliance (GTMA) and the Toronto Region Research Alliance (TRAA). The program will focus on key sectors of importance in Richmond Hill, along with geographic regions based on the targeted sectors, including life sciences, business services and advanced manufacturing, among others.
