Alberta has a proud history of world-leading innovation in life sciences – a key industry that continues to drive our province’s social and economic growth.

In September 2023, we celebrated the inaugural Life Sciences Week in Alberta to demonstrate the deep and wide-ranging impact of the sector and build momentum.

With more than 20 events and activations from around the province, and over 1000 attendees, the week served as testament to the province’s accomplishments in life sciences and amplified the industry as a key driver in Alberta’s economic and social development.
