Session 1: New Brunswick and Atlantic Canada on the World Stage: Towards a More Globally Connected and Competitive Region
Oct 2, 2025 — 03:00 pm - 4:45 PMRoom 1
New Brunswick is at an inflection point with opportunities to scale existing sectors while branching into new and related areas and establishing new trade partners, in Canada and overseas, all while implementing productivity-enhancing measures. To fulfil the province’s potential – and to contribute fully to Atlantic and Canadian competitiveness – actors need to come together across sectors, including business, civil society, higher education, and the public sector, to champion new and innovative ways of doing business and investing in people and places to ensure long-term resilience, productivity growth, and an overall boost in the region’s attractiveness for investment and talent.
