Government of Alberta

The Government of Alberta is a Canadian provincial government that fosters economic development and innovation through various departments, programs, and Crown corporations. It provides non-dilutive funding and grants to companies, often to achieve specific policy goals such as emissions reduction or technological advancement. Key funding bodies operating on its behalf include Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA) and Alberta Innovates. Additionally, it acts as an institutional investor and limited partner through the Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo), a Crown corporation that manages public pension plans and endowment funds like the Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund.
