The Southern Alberta Institute of Technology has received a nearly $1M investment from the Opportunity Calgary Investment Fund in support of the Alternative Construction Technologies (ACT) Hub. SAIT’s ACT Hub will use the funds to accelerate the development of innovative construction technology and manufacturing processes. The ACT Hub will also provide SAIT students with a place to practice working with cutting-edge equipment and develop their technical skills. “This funding will provide Calgary’s construction sector valuable access to manufacturing and materials expertise, as well as specialized research facilities,” said SAIT AVP, Continuing Education and Professional Studies Vis Naidoo.
