The area's anchors, including OpenText, Manulife and Sun Life insurance operations, University of Waterloo, Communitech-area startups, BlackBerry legacy/QNX, advanced-manufacturing and instrumentation firms, shape the kind of work Waterloo needs: load-rated, code-documented, and built for hard use.
