Toronto is a vibrant, thriving, creative city heralded as an international centre for commerce, research and innovation.

Canada's largest biotech market brings biotech ideas to life. The newly opened Terrence Donnelly Centre for Cellular and Biomolecular Research, a factory for Nobel-quality research integrates some of the best minds from the U of T's medical, pharmaceutical and engineering faculties. Donnelly teams are using tools of molecular engineering to attempt new stem cell therapies; another group is using materials science techniques to discover new coatings for transplanted organs in an attempt to reduce the frequency of recipient rejection.

In June 2005, Toronto was named Canadian City of the Future by Foreign Direct Investment Magazine surpassing the competition in areas of transport, IT and Telecoms, quality of life and foreign direct investment promotion.

Businesses, academia and government have combined forces to strengthen two of Toronto's key sectors: Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and Aerospace. A development strategy for ICT Acrobat provides recommendations to make Toronto one of the world's 5 most innovative, creative and productive locations for ICT research, education, and business by 2011.

The goals of Flight Path: A Vision for the Future Acrobat, a 10-year strategy for the Ontario aerospace industry, are to increase aerospace sector revenues, jobs and exports by at least 50%; and triple Tier 1 aircraft assembly.

Toronto's impressive range of post-secondary educational facilities includes three universities and five colleges offering training in virtually every discipline and skill. Toronto leads the country in number of post-secondary schools and graduates with more than 15,000 medical/ biotech researchers, two top-ranked MBA schools as well as excellent programs in engineering, computer sciences and multi-media.

Toronto - a city of unlimited potential.
