EDMONTON — Alberta is strengthening its position in high-tech manufacturing with a $20-million expansion of a semiconductor manufacturing facility in Edmonton, a project expected to create dozens of jobs while supporting the province’s growing technology sector.
Teledyne Technologies Incorporated announced it is expanding its Edmonton operation with new manufacturing equipment and facility upgrades designed to increase production capacity and improve efficiency.
The Alberta government is contributing a $620,000 grant through its Investment and Growth Fund to support the project.
Provincial officials say the expansion will create 16 permanent full-time positions and approximately 20 temporary construction jobs.
Jobs, Economy, Trade and Immigration Minister Joseph Schow said the investment demonstrates Alberta’s ability to attract high-value manufacturing projects and strengthen its advanced technology sector.
Teledyne established operations in Alberta in 2019 and manufactures microscopic sensors and semiconductor components used in a wide range of industries.
Its products support vehicle safety systems, medical diagnostics and cancer research, industrial gas detection, telecommunications, aerospace applications and consumer electronics.
The company said the expansion reflects confidence in Edmonton’s skilled workforce and innovation ecosystem while creating new opportunities for long-term economic growth.
Edmonton Global CEO Daryn Edgar said the investment reinforces the region’s reputation as a centre for advanced manufacturing and precision technology.
The project adds to Alberta’s efforts to diversify its economy beyond traditional resource industries by attracting investment in advanced manufacturing and technology.
According to the province, the Investment and Growth Fund has leveraged more than $1 billion in private-sector investment since 2021 while supporting more than 1,400 permanent jobs and 1,770 temporary positions.
Budget 2026 commits nearly $28 million to continue the program, which the province says has attracted approximately $30 in private investment for every dollar of government funding.
