Josh’s Benefits Meeting

Nova Scotia

The Halifax chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce our newest initiative “Surge - Growing vibrantly together.” The Chamber recognizes the need to create opportunities for those who face various systemic barriers within the business community. It is our ongoing priority to ensure participation amongst the broader, more diverse business community. As part of our Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, and Inclusion (EDAI) action initiative, we plan to obtain 100 new members from underrepresented groups by providing a 1-year complimentary membership to those who qualify! Join us for a virtual information session with Josh Creighton, our Community Engagement Specialist, to learn more about how you can leverage your Chamber membership to save money, gain exposure, make connections, and drive change.
