Anita Huberman is an instrumental figure at the Surrey Board of Trade, where she has overseen an action plan that emphasizes the importance of education and transportation in driving the economy.

Under her leadership, the board has integrated the power of film into K-12 education, creating visual narratives that inform students about the rich history of Canada, particularly that of its indigenous people.

These efforts are backed by productions from the National Film Board. Huberman believes such initiatives not only boost community development but they also contribute to a vibrant narrative that fosters economic and social development.

An advocate of the film industry, Huberman is set on enhancing its potential within both a Canadian and an international context. Under her stewardship, Surrey has been the location for around 670 film and TV productions since 2017.
