2 Program: Economic Development Vision Statement: To be recognized by companies as the premier town in Canada in which to locate. Mission Statement: To support existing businesses and attract new ones so that Oakville s business environment is strong, diversified and prosperous. Program Description Economic Development The Economic Development department is one of seven departments in the Town of Oakville s Community Development Commission, along with Building, Planning, Development Engineering, Environmental Policy, Strategic Business Support, and Engineering & Construction. Economic Development may be viewed as a first point of contact for companies, providing access to the various departments with which they engage. The basis for the work of departmental staff is the town s Economic Development Strategy , which includes three main goals: Attract knowledge based industries in the professional services, advanced manufacturing, digital media & animation, and life sciences sectors. Respond to the needs to the business community in order to foster business retention and expansion. Explore international business opportunities. Tourism Tourism services are delivered by The Oakville Tourism Partnership Inc, (OTP), a not-for-profit organization comprising volunteer stakeholders in the local community. OTP focuses on tourism activities that will position the Town of Oakville as a desirable place to visit, enjoy attractions and restaurants, and to shop. It functions as a hub that connects people and coordinates the activities in tourism including provincially funded Regional Tourism Organizations; town departments and facilities; BIAs; Oakville Chamber of Commerce; Halton Region; and local businesses such as hotels, restaurants and retailers.
