Summary: 

The Société de développement Angus (SDA -Angus Development Company), a social economy enterprise, acquired a 2-million-square-feet polluted plot in the heart of Montréal, following the closure of Angus Shops, in the Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie neighbourhood. SDA has revitalized the sector through a mobilizing and unifying project: the Technopôle Angus. Built according to the best practices of sustainable development, the site nowadays houses businesses, institutions, and organizations that employ over 2,300 workers in several dynamic sectors, such as health care, services, information technologies, multimedia as well as the social economy.
