Roger Geisinger, AMBA Executive Director

What a different world we currently live in! The COVID-19 virus has swept in like a hurricane, instantly changing our way of life, and quite likely for the for foreseeable future. The current focus is on reducing loss of life. Our economy will suffer untold consequences and could take a long period of time to return to “normal”. The upside is humans are resilient and Albertans especially so! This crisis will end and it will take all of our efforts to rebuild. With over 200 labs world wide searching for antiviral medications and vaccines, it is only a matter of time before successes are found.

Our current focus is on the health and safety of our families and of our employees. Companies that have done their best to support their employees through this will be the first to bounce back and hit the deck running.

The Board continues to support its member companies and the values AMBA represents. Prior to the onset of the recent crisis, the Board reached out to the MBCEA with an offer of alignment as a sister organization. Our initial letter was well received. As most things business related, this alignment is on the sidelines as we deal with larger issues.

On behalf of the AMBA Board, we wish health and safety for you, your families and your employees. Stay safe!
