About Venture

You don’t need to travel halfway around the world to find a highly successful business and trading region. United by a common border and similar approaches to doing business, Canada and the United States together represent a multitrillion- dollar economic engine that leads the world in many measures of innovation, productivity, natural resources and other key criteria.

Thanks to trade agreements such as NAFTA and their very similar cultures, the United States and Canada enjoy one of the most successful cross-national business relationships in history. Two-way trade between the two countries, in fact, exceeds $440 billion annually. Venture is the place to learn how top Canadian and U.S. business executives are positioning their companies for success in today’s global economy.

Venture features interviews with the CEOs and other top managers of leading North American service, manufacturing, mineral, agricultural and other businesses.
