Economic Development, Regeneration and New Economy

Sierra offers a full economic development consulting service including economic development plans, their review and update, and ad-hoc sector-specific or other strategies in response to new government policies, funding or other opportunities. We also engage in detailed site location research and investigation, and have assisted a number of clients with site searches - this includes not only private business but also municipalities and provincial governments seeking to locate new municipal or provincial facilities.

We offer consulting assistance for new sector development, including the emerging green energy economy.
