The Vancouver Island Economic Alliance‘s annual economic summit starts Wednesday in Nanaimo, and they’re doing something brand new this year.
VIEA President George Hanson says the first-ever State of the Island Economic Report will be unveiled during the closing luncheon on Thursday.
Hanson says they worked with a top economist at MNP to create the report, which examines the island’s economy, both regionally and as a whole.
The VIEA summit at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre is expected to attract hundreds of delegates.
