Message to EDA Members

Here is a reminder that the Match Factor Pilot Project is an excellent business retention and expansion, and investment attraction tool available to EDA Members.

As you know, this project involves Alberta businesses looking to sell their enterprises, matches those businesses with an investor buyer then offers job opportunities for Ukrainian people displaced by the war in their region.

Many of your know first-hand the high percentage of businesses looking to sell or exit a community in the next year or two, the economic impact to our communities will be profound. 

SuccessionMatching, our partner in this project, has given us helpful information that we would like to pass on to you.

By clicking this link, you will see a list of the types of businesses investor buyers are looking for in Alberta. In the same document is a list of key messages that will be useful.

Since you may know businesses are looking to transition or sell, please reach out to those that you think might be a good fit, and tell them about the project.

All you need to do is have your selected businesses go to the EDA website and apply for the project here: https://www.edaalberta.ca/match-factor.
