Close Knit Community

Regina is a close knit community where you always know your neighbours - even the premier is just down the street and only a phone call away. 

Pristine Environment 

Saskatchewan's pristine environment means businesses can be built in noise and pollution-free surroundings, and the amount of wide open space means that you can set up a factory anywhere.  

Local Work Ethic

People who believed that hard work, honesty and teamwork were the only things needed to get ahead in life, built the Regina region, and today we have a new generation of entrepreneurial, innovative and educated minds.  This combined with a strong work ethic and level of ingenuity is evident in the people of Saskatchewan today.  Regina and region has one of the highest job tenure rates in the country because people are committed to their employees. 

Technology Infrastructure

Regina has a solid technology infrastructure in place and is building on that infrastructure  to adapt to the changing needs of business allowing businesses to instantly connect with clients and suppliers around the globe.

Lowest Business Cost

Regina has consistently remained one of the lowest cost business environments in North America, which means you can spend more money investing in and expanding your business. 

Active Business Community

Regina's business community works together as a team to improve and assist all businesses in the city to grow the regionally economy.  We have active federal and provincial participation in building our infrastructure and making valued contributions to the business community.

Integrated Knowledge Corridor

Regina's Knowledge Corridor, including the University of Regina, Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Arts, Science and Technology and the First Nations University, is integrated within the city's business community and has taken a leadership role in developing Regina's economic growth. 

A Living Laboratory

Regina has the fastest growing research park in North America with research, expertise and innovation in the energy, environment, and new digital media, information and communications technology sectors.  Regina and region has become a "living laboratory" for methods of maintaining sustainability that could one day be applied throughout the world. 

Central to the Continent

Regina is, quite literally, in the middle of it all - a location right in the middle of North America, which Regina offers proximity to all other major business centres throughout the continent. 

Size Matters

Regina is the perfect size - big enough to have all of the services a business or family require, yet small enough to have maintained a ‘small-town' feeling - it wont be long before you feel right at home. 

Home Safe Home

The London-based Economist Intelligence Unit's (EIU) Liveability Ranking conducted a worldwide search for the best places to live.  The ranking was based on 40 indicators in 5 categories including stability, healthcare, culture & environment, education and infrastructure.  When all was said and done, Canada came out on top!  The reasons were Canada's low crime rate, little threat from terrorism and a highly developed infrastructure.  Don't forget that the UN ranked Canada the #1 country to live in 5 years in a row!
