Real-Time Data for Canadian Businesses

I’m a partner at a Saskatchewan-based private equity firm, and we like to consolidate some of the surveys that give a sense of forward-looking sentiment. I like all the tools, but use the Business Conditions Terminal the most. There’s lots of good information out there, but I find this is one of the better consolidators of economic information for Canada—it’s easy to use and concise. Thanks again for creating the platform and tool.

The Canadian Chamber of Commerce has a new tool to democratize data – and it’s pretty good.

I have appreciated our partnership with the Business Data Lab. Working with them has advanced our monitoring of regional business conditions, giving us access to tools we did not have previously. The BDL is a positive contributor that supports Greater Vancouver businesses to navigate the shifting economic landscape

The Business Data Lab has been a very useful tool for the Halifax Chamber. The data they provide us on business conditions in Halifax allow our Policy team to monitor key local economic trends. These insights help support our Chamber’s advocacy through informed analysis and educate our members on conditions in the region. The team at the BDL are not only very skilled at data management but are very responsive to our requests. We would highly recommend partnering with the BDL.

We are grateful for the creation and evolution of Business Data Lab as a critical tool for decision making and calibrating efforts in the private, public and third sectors. The pandemic revealed a significant information gap that was costly to our national economy and every community. Access to timely and relevant data and insights is the way for us to be competitive, ensure inclusivity, grow our economy, and address our biggest challenges.
