In a year marked by geopolitical shifts, economic uncertainty, and urgent regional challenges, the Toronto Region Board of Trade remained focused and proactive. Our early identification of the Toronto region's productivity crisis positioned us to lead, not merely react.
Our 2024/25 Annual Report demonstrates our commitment to bold business leadership. With our members, we drove crucial conversations on building a more productive economy, intensified our focus on global competitiveness, and delivered forward thinking policy solutions to our region’s most pressive challenges.
- Hosted 65 in-person events that brought together nearly 8,000 leaders and innovators.
- Put members in the spotlight in our new Toronto Talks podcast, and refreshed newsletters.
- Advanced productivity-focused advocacy through the Business Council of Toronto.
- Raised awareness of the challenges facing businesses and the regional economy, and put forward bold solutions to address them—such as our congestion campaign, where we convened influential leaders, delivered a clear action plan, and helped drive government implementation.
- Expanded World Trade Centre-Toronto programs to equip SMEs with the tools to grow globally and adopt AI.
