RBC Royal Bank has signed an agreement giving it naming rights to the Winnipeg Convention Centre. The venue will now be known as the RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg. The convention centre is currently undergoing a $181 million expansion and renovation that will double its size to 135,000 square feet. "We are thrilled to have [the RBC] name attached to our convention centre for years to come," said Klaus Lahr, president and CEO of the convention centre. "RBC has played a significant role in the history of our country and having their support is monumental. This agreement is a further sign of the significance of our expansion as we continue to remain competitive in the Canadian convention industry and reposition ourselves in the community."
