Saskatchewan will be seen as a jurisdiction of choice for living, working, investing and operating a business in the key sectors.
Sector Teams are established in the following sectors of Saskatchewan's economy:
Sector Teams provide a new forum to enhance industry government communication and collaboration in developing policies to build on competitive advantages and reduce barriers to growth to ensure that the province's key economic sectors grow and flourish. The Sector Teams help to clarify the roles of government and other partners in growing each sector. Sector Teams identify goals and performance measurement indicators, and monitor and report on progress in achieving those goals.
While Enterprise Saskatchewan plays a lead role in facilitating economic growth, the agency will build on the existing work of various partners including industry associations, economic development organizations, agencies, ministries and other stakeholders.
Each sector is unique, with some sectors having effective industry associations and existing industry-government partnerships. Enterprise Saskatchewan Sector Teams collaborate with these organizations on common interests, building on, rather than duplicating efforts. Enterprise Saskatchewan also works closely with other ministries and agencies that have key sector responsibilities to co-ordinate the Sector Teams.
