City approves new boards of directors for Build Toronto/Invest Toronto
Toronto has taken the next step in its plans to enhance Toronto’s economic competitiveness. The new Boards of Directors for Build Toronto and Invest Toronto, proposed by the Mayor’s Nomination Panel, were confirmed today by Toronto City Council. This new model was recommended in both the Blueprint for Fiscal Stability and Economic Prosperity and the Agenda for Prosperity.
“I am pleased to welcome these highly qualified and dedicated citizens to the boards of Build Toronto and Invest Toronto,” said Mayor David Miller. “Especially in these challenging economic times, it is imperative that we better utilize the City’s extensive real estate holdings and more effectively promote our City both at home and abroad so that we can retain and attract high quality jobs.”
