Share Your BIG IDEA:
Our region is brimming with potential. From our rich natural resources to our vibrant communities, we have all the ingredients to create a thriving, dynamic local economy. But here’s the thing: the best ideas don’t always come from boardrooms—they come from you!
That’s why we’re inviting everyone, from long-time residents to newcomers, to share their BIG IDEA for the kind of business, project, or asset that could make our region a beacon of innovation, opportunity, and prosperity.
What We’re Looking For
We want to hear your boldest, most creative suggestions. Maybe it’s a:
New Business Idea: A tech hub, eco-tourism venture, or artisanal food market.
Community Asset: A shared workspace, cultural center, or renewable energy project.
Transformational Project: A large-scale infrastructure initiative, such as a modern transit system or a green energy park.
No idea is too big—or too small. If it has the potential to create jobs, enhance our quality of life, or attract investment, we want to hear it!
What’s Holding You Back?
If you have a great idea but haven’t acted on it yet, we’d love to know why. Are there obstacles standing in your way, such as:
Access to Funding: Do you need financial resources or investment support?
Expertise: Are you looking for mentorship or technical knowledge to get started?
Regulatory Challenges: Are there policies or processes slowing things down?
Infrastructure Needs: Does the region lack the facilities or services you need to bring your idea to life?
Sharing the challenges you face will help us understand how to create a more supportive environment for innovation and entrepreneurship.
