Prince George City Council could be approving a bid submission to host a future BC Economic Summit during Monday’s Council Meeting.
Applications were recently put out to host the 2028 BC Economic Summit gathering economic developers, policymakers, business professionals, and community stakeholders annually each May.
In a report from the City, it said with several hundred participants attending the events, the expected economic impact of the Summit to Prince George would be at least $250,000.
If successful, $25,000 cash and/or in-kind would need to be used for the summit, and would be funded from the Major Events Reserve Fund.
While the BC Economic Development Association is accepting applications to host the 2028 BC Economic Summit, the City said its Administration is also prepared to submit a bid to host a future BC Economic Summit for 2029 or 2030.
