Economic Engine: Driving Nova Scotia’s Economy Forward

February 28 @ 9:30 am - 5:30 pm AST

Halifax and Nova Scotia are experiencing record growth in population, GDP, new businesses starting up, and attracting university talent. With a provincial goal of doubling the population to two million people in the coming years, how do we begin to shift our goals and define the future of Nova Scotia?

The Halifax Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce our second Economic Forum.

The Forum will showcase a positive, realistic, and optimistic narrative of where Nova Scotia’s economy is heading and how best to navigate the pitfalls while capitalizing on the opportunities. The Forum will cover a broad range of topics related to Nova Scotia’s economy, including the most pressing issues impacting our current and future economic prosperity.

Join us on February 28 to discuss how governments and businesses need to react and respond to ensure they steward the economy in a way that maximizes the potential for all Nova Scotians.

Featuring topics including:

  • The Black Economy in Nova Scotia with Black Business Initiative
  • Keynote with Andrew Mutch, President, Michelin North America (Canada) Inc
  • Indigenous Business Impact report with John G. Paul, Executive Director of the Atlantic Policy Congress of First Nations Chiefs Secretariat in Dartmouth
  • Roundtables with provincial Ministers
