How has your local economy actually changed since 2019? Join us for a deep dive into the Canadian Business Counts Dashboard to move beyond guesswork. We’ll show you how to leverage semi-annual snapshots to track industry evolution, identify emerging sectors, and pinpoint shifts in your business landscape through 2025.

The Canadian Business Counts dataset includes a comprehensive inventory of active business locations across Canada, categorized by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Updated every six months, this resource allows you to filter by employment size ranges—from micro-businesses to large-scale employers—and dive deep into specific geographic levels, including Census Divisions and Subdivisions.

By attending this webinar, you’ll learn how to navigate these granular layers to visualize where your community is thriving, where gaps are forming, and how to turn these semi-annual snapshots into a compelling narrative for your next economic profile or strategic plan.
