MBOT IN THE NEWSnews
  
Mississauga looks to continue post-Hazel renaissance in 2016

MBOT President & CEO David Wojcik was quoted:
 
"We have 73 Fortune 500 companies that have a presence in Mississauga. And now we're working with the mayor's office on her new innovation and entrepreneurship task force" to make Mississauga an even bigger destination for investment and entrepreneurship," he said.
 
"It's all centred around building a community that allows people to be successful in Mississauga."
 
Wojcik says his organization and city hall are looking forward to working on major economic development in 2016, particularly because the new federal minister of innovation, science and economic development, Navdeep Bains, is from Mississauga.
 
"We're going to see some very interesting innovation in Mississauga."
