Alberta trade minister begins 12-day mission to Mexico City, Texas
Joseph Schow will meet government and industry leaders in three cities as part of a bid to attract investment and business opportunities for Alberta.
Alberta's Minister of Jobs, Economy, Trade and Immigration, Joseph Schow, departed this weekend on a 12-day trade mission starting in Mexico City, where he will meet with government and industry leaders to strengthen economic ties and pursue new opportunities for Alberta businesses.
In Mexico City, Schow will take part in the North Capital Forum, an event that brings together Mexican trade and investment leaders alongside company CEOs from the United States and Canada. The province says the mission is meant to showcase Alberta's business environment, skilled workforce and resources to support long-term growth and investment.
Schow, the MLA for Cardston-Siksika, said connecting with North American industry leaders and decision-makers can help Alberta businesses access new markets, create jobs and support economic growth across the province.
On Wednesday, Schow will leave Mexico City for Austin, Texas, to hold sessions with industry and government leaders before travelling to Dallas for the final stop of the trip. He is scheduled to return to Alberta on October 7.
