About Team Brandon Ambassadors

The Ambassador Program is best described as a network of champions providing communications links between Brandon and the worldwide business community. Through the program we are breaking down barriers in national and international markets and educating others about what Brandon has to offer.  Ambassadors can make the connections between opportunities and Economic Development Brandon that ultimately contribute to economic diversification and development of Brandon as a significant contributor in the Manitoba economy.
