An overview of Ottawa Business Journal

Ottawa Business Journal is the leading source of local business news and information for Canada's national capital region. Every Monday, the newspaper provides authoritative and in-depth news coverage on the sectors that comprise Ottawa's vibrant business scene, ranging from technology to commercial real estate and corporate finance to hospitality. Readers can turn to the Ottawa Business Journal for exclusive news, analysis, features on hot new trends, behind-the-scenes coverage of major deals and profiles of the players that make things happen.

The newspaper is specifically targeted to business decision-makers — managers, owners, professionals and executives. It's written for people who have the authority to set the course of their businesses. Every news report, every feature story and every opinion piece is written with our readership in mind.

Ottawa Business Journal reaches the business community through qualified complimentary distribution. The newspaper is available at more than 700 indoor and outdoor locations that span the city from east to west. In addition, OBJ has several exclusive distribution agreements with business organizations such as the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce and the Regroupement des gens d'affaires. The newspaper is also distributed to the office of all Members of Parliament and Senators.

In addition to its weekly newspaper, the Ottawa Business Journal produces several special publications, including the Ottawa Technology Industry Guide, The Book of Lists, Ottawa HR, Meeting In The Capital and BOMA Ottawa's Office Space Directory.
