Can Alberta Tech Transform Global Energy?

Alberta’s economy will shrink by billions of dollars in 2020 and the unemployment rate is set to exceed 20%. Starting the year with a price war launched by foreign countries, combined with a global pandemic, demand has been decimated and Alberta’s economy is in crisis.

In this episode of RBC Disruptors, John Stackhouse is joined by Alice Reimer, Co-Founder of the51 and Site Lead for Creative Destruction Lab and Marty Reed, CEO of Evok Innovations, to discuss the challenges facing Alberta’s energy sector and the steps Alberta needs to take to ensure our energy sector is a critical part of a greener global economy. In today’s episode we discuss:

  • How Alberta technology can transform the future of global energy;
  • The steps Alberta’s energy sector can take to power a cleaner and more competitive economy;
  • How to foster a culture of innovation in Alberta to create exportable IP, attract top talent, and diversify the energy sector and economy.
