Waterloo Region Economic Development Corporation is Waterloo Region's investment promotion agency. This includes the cities of Cambridge, Kitchener and Waterloo, as well as the townships of North Dumfries, Wellesley, Wilmot and Woolwich. Waterloo EDC is funded by the cities and townships that it represents and is a non-profit organization. As an economic development organization, its mandate is to attract foreign direct investment into the region and provide business retention and expansion support. Waterloo EDC was created as a result of the most recent edition of the Waterloo Region Economic Development Strategy, with a revised mandate from its predecessor, Canada's Technology Triangle, which ceased operations in December 2015.[2][3]
