Welcome to Percy On Business Street News - an online business publication specifically for and about Saskatchewan business.

 

 Headlines for August 9, 2010:

  

ENTERPRISE SASKATCHEWAN'S NEW CEO, Chris Dekker, talks to Street in an exclusive interview about what has worked and not worked with the province's primary economic development organization. Dekker discusses the behind the scenes work carried out by ES and success benchmarks for the future.

 

IDEAS INC. WORKS. Four companies have already "graduated" from this business incubator. Now that's the sign of success!

 

WHO SHOULD CONTROL SASKATOON'S TAXI BUSINESS? To have a couple of people at City Hall control the entire industry? Tell me the last time that worked well.

 

SASKATCHEWAN REMAINS ON A ROLL: SO SAY THE NUMBERS. A review of statistical information from across a wide spectrum of economic activity points to one conclusion. The relative economic advantage Saskatchewan has enjoyed, even through the downturn of 2008-2009, is not a blip on the radar. It's here for the long run.
