Are you a visionary leader ready to help steer one of Canada’s most dynamic innovation ecosystems? Invest Ottawa is inviting applications for new members to join our volunteer Board of Directors.

This is your chance to help drive inclusive economic growth, strengthen Ottawa’s innovation economy, and create lasting impact for businesses and communities across our region. As the lead economic development agency for knowledge-based industries in Canada’s Capital, Invest Ottawa works with founders, startups, scaleups, and global companies to start, grow, and succeed.

Our Board plays a critical role in guiding this mission – through strategic oversight, leadership, and a deep commitment to inclusive prosperity. We’re seeking candidates with leadership and board experience in areas such as entrepreneurship, intellectual property, international business, capital markets, government relations, or DEI.

Leaders from equity-deserving communities and high-growth sectors (like AI, cleantech, health tech, and cybersecurity) are especially encouraged to apply. 

If you’re ready to contribute your expertise to a mission that matters, this is your moment. 

🗓️ Deadline to apply: June 30, 2025
