MandatesAttract, retain and expand foreign direct investmentsIn 2013, Montréal International and its partners helped 39 foreign subsidiaries set up or expand in Greater Montréal. This prospecting and support resulted in foreign direct investments of $1.28 billion – 86% more than in 2012 – and in 2,729 jobs created or maintained. European companies accounted for 83% of the investments facilitated by MI — a more than 25-point increase over 2012. Two countries in particular saw their share rise sharply: Sweden and Germany.

MI also led 63 foreign prospecting missions and organized 36 targeted activities to support the growth of international organizations already established in Montréal. In 2013, thirty companies took part in three recruiting missions in the US and Europe, and 186 skilled foreign workers were hired.
