In 2005, the city of Montréal adopted an urban and economic development plan inviting public and private firms and developers to invest in Montréal. This extensive program, called Montréal 2025, is much more than a simple vision for the future:

• It is a partnership offer extended to national and international firms that choose Montréal as a place to grow and succeed.
• It is a centre of expertise and services to support investors in their projects and achievements.
• It is a strategic tool for facilitating access to municipal, provincial and federal resources.

 

ONE PROJECT, ONE SOLUTION
Guidance, advice and support. The city has assigned a clear mandate to the Montréal 2025 team for its work with companies. Our experts take a project-centred approach and act as a bridge between the municipal administration and a company’s leaders to create customized, efficient and seamless solutions. They can intervene to address specific issues or be involved throughout a project as leaders, supporters or even developers where municipal infrastructures are concerned:

• during the incubation phase, to study the project;
• during the development phase, to define the city’s participation, optimize the project and negotiate with the developer;
• during the completion phase, to put the chosen solution into effect.

 

 

A ONE-STOP CENTRE
As it did with its services for residents, the city of Montréal has reinvented its business services to ensure that it can meet business needs quickly and efficiently. The Montréal 2025 team, specializing in large project development, puts its commitment, know-how and skills to work on behalf of business clients.

PRIVILEGED ACCESS TO RESOURCES
Being ambitious is a good thing. Having the means to fulfil one’s ambitions is even better. That is why Montréal 2025 has a financial plan that brings city resources and those of the different levels of government together under one roof. All in all, over $430 M is available to encourage, support and fund public and private development initiatives in Montréal

• $325 M in investment funds for major projects
• $105 M in business and industry subsidy programs (the Success@Montréal and ClimatSol programs)
