This week we highlighted The Brief, an Alberta Better podcast series, presented by the Business Council of Alberta that "explores the big challenges we face as Albertans." We also talked about SHIFT by Alberta Innovates, a podcast that showcases the work being done in the province's innovation ecosystem by interviewing "the researchers, entrepreneurs and businesses that are shifting our perspective about innovation in the province."
