A strong innovation culture gives our territory a competitive edge and positions Yukon for continued success in the knowledge economy. Knowledge economy is defined as the usage of knowledge to create goods and services. Technology growth and innovation is a form of knowledge economy. It contributes to sustainable economic growth and diversification, fostering a robust and resilient economy with social and wealth benefits for all citizens.

This will influence how the Government of Yukon chooses to invest resources to stimulate and diversify the technology and knowledge economy.
