      History

      The Industry and Technology Policy Branch was formed in 1991 within the Policy and Development Division of the Ontario Ministry of Industry, Trade and Technology. The branch resulted from a restructuring of the division which saw the Technology Policy Branch and the Industry and Trade Policy Branch (briefly known as the Industry and Sectoral Policy Branch) form the Industry and Technology Policy Branch and the Sectoral Policy Branch.

      The branch continued to exist within the Policy Division following the creation of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade in 1993. In 1995 when the Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Tourism was formed, the Industry and Technology Policy Branch formed part of the new ministry.

      In 1996, the Industry and Technology Policy Branch was replaced by the Economic Development Co-ordination and Analysis Branch, which formed part of the Strategic Analysis, Sectors and Technology Division of the Ministry.
